Psalm 36

The Complete Jewish Bible CJB

1 For the leader. By David, the servant of ADONAI: Crime speaks to the wicked. I perceive this in my heart; before his eyes there is no fear of God.

2 For, the way he sees it, crime makes his life easy that is, until his wrongs are discovered; then, he is hated.

3 His words are wrong and deceitful; he has stopped being wise and doing good.

4 He devises trouble as he lies in bed; so set is he on his own bad way that he doesn't hate evil.

5 ADONAI, in the heavens is your grace; your faithfulness reaches to the skies.

6 Your righteousness is like the mountains of God, your judgments are like the great deep. You save man and beast, ADONAI.

7 How precious, God, is your grace! People take refuge in the shadow of your wings,

8 they feast on the rich bounty of your house, and you have them drink from the stream of your delights.

9 For with you is the fountain of life; in your light we see light.

10 Continue your grace to those who know you and your righteousness to the upright in heart.

11 Don't let the foot of the proud tread on me or the hands of the wicked drive me away.

12 There they lie fallen, those evildoers, flung down and unable to rise.

New Living Translation NLT

1 Sin whispers to the wicked, deep within their hearts. They have no fear of God at all.

2 In their blind conceit, they cannot see how wicked they really are.

3 Everything they say is crooked and deceitful. They refuse to act wisely or do good.

4 They lie awake at night, hatching sinful plots. Their actions are never good. They make no attempt to turn from evil.

5 Your unfailing love, O LORD, is as vast as the heavens; your faithfulness reaches beyond the clouds.

6 Your righteousness is like the mighty mountains, your justice like the ocean depths. You care for people and animals alike, O LORD .

7 How precious is your unfailing love, O God! All humanity finds shelter in the shadow of your wings.

8 You feed them from the abundance of your own house, letting them drink from your river of delights.

9 For you are the fountain of life, the light by which we see.

10 Pour out your unfailing love on those who love you; give justice to those with honest hearts.

11 Don’t let the proud trample me or the wicked push me around.

12 Look! Those who do evil have fallen! They are thrown down, never to rise again.
