Psalm 36

1 I have a message from God in my heart concerning the sinfulness of the wicked:There is no fear of God before their eyes.

1 Here are the words God has given me to say about the evil ways of anyone who sins. He doesn't have any respect for God.

2 In their own eyes they flatter themselves too much to detect or hate their sin.

2 He praises himself so much that he can't see his sin or hate it.

3 The words of their mouths are wicked and deceitful; they fail to act wisely or do good.

3 His mouth speaks words that are evil and false. He has stopped being wise. He has stopped doing good.

4 Even on their beds they plot evil; they commit themselves to a sinful course and do not reject what is wrong.

4 Even as he lies in bed he makes evil plans. He commits himself to a sinful way of life. He never says no to what is wrong.

5 Your love, LORD, reaches to the heavens, your faithfulness to the skies.

5 Lord, your love is as high as the heavens. Your faithful love reaches up to the skies.

6 Your righteousness is like the highest mountains, your justice like the great deep. You, LORD, preserve both people and animals.

6 You are as holy as the mountains are high. You are as honest as the oceans are deep. Lord, you keep people and animals safe.

7 How priceless is your unfailing love, O God! People take refuge in the shadow of your wings.

7 How priceless your faithful love is! Important and ordinary people alike find safety in the shadow of your wings.

8 They feast on the abundance of your house; you give them drink from your river of delights.

8 They eat well because there is more than enough in your house. You let them drink from your river that flows with good things.

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

9 You have the fountain of life. We are filled with light because you give us light.

10 Continue your love to those who know you, your righteousness to the upright in heart.

10 Keep on loving those who know you. Keep on doing right to those whose hearts are honest.

11 May the foot of the proud not come against me, nor the hand of the wicked drive me away.

11 Don't let the feet of those who are proud step on me. Don't let the hands of those who are evil drive me away.

12 See how the evildoers lie fallen— thrown down, not able to rise!

12 See how those who do evil have fallen! They are thrown down. They aren't able to get up.
