Psalm 36

The Message Bible MSG

1 The God-rebel tunes in to sedition - all ears, eager to sin. He has no regard for God, he stands insolent before him.

2 He has smooth-talked himself into believing That his evil will never be noticed.

3 Words gutter from his mouth, dishwater dirty. Can't remember when he did anything decent.

4 Every time he goes to bed, he fathers another evil plot. When he's loose on the streets, nobody's safe. He plays with fire and doesn't care who gets burned.

5 God's love is meteoric, his loyalty astronomic,

6 His purpose titanic, his verdicts oceanic. Yet in his largeness nothing gets lost; Not a man, not a mouse, slips through the cracks.

7 How exquisite your love, O God! How eager we are to run under your wings,

8 To eat our fill at the banquet you spread as you fill our tankards with Eden spring water.

9 You're a fountain of cascading light, and you open our eyes to light.

10 Keep on loving your friends; do your work in welcoming hearts.

11 Don't let the bullies kick me around, the moral midgets slap me down.

12 Send the upstarts sprawling flat on their faces in the mud.

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.
