Psalm 36
HCSB Parallel NET [BSB CSB ESV HCS KJV ISV NAS NET NIV NLT HEB]
Holman Christian Standard BibleNET Bible
1For the choir director. A psalm of David, the LORD's servant. An oracle within my heart concerning the transgression of the wicked person: There is no dread of God before his eyes, 1For the music director; written by the LORD's servant, David; an oracle. An evil man is rebellious to the core. He does not fear God,
2for in his own eyes he flatters himself too much to discover and hate his sin. 2for he is too proud to recognize and give up his sin.
3The words of his mouth are malicious and deceptive; he has stopped acting wisely and doing good. 3The words he speaks are sinful and deceitful; he does not care about doing what is wise and right.
4Even on his bed he makes malicious plans. He sets himself on a path that is not good and does not reject evil. 4He plans ways to sin while he lies in bed; he is committed to a sinful lifestyle; he does not reject what is evil.
5 LORD, Your faithful love reaches to heaven, Your faithfulness to the clouds. 5O LORD, your loyal love reaches to the sky; your faithfulness to the clouds.
6Your righteousness is like the highest mountains; Your judgments, like the deepest sea. LORD, You preserve man and beast. 6Your justice is like the highest mountains, your fairness like the deepest sea; you preserve mankind and the animal kingdom.
7God, Your faithful love is so valuable that people take refuge in the shadow of Your wings. 7How precious is your loyal love, O God! The human race finds shelter under your wings.
8They are filled from the abundance of Your house; You let them drink from Your refreshing stream, 8They are filled with food from your house, and you allow them to drink from the river of your delicacies.
9for with You is life's fountain. In Your light we will see light. 9For you are the one who gives and sustains life.
10Spread Your faithful love over those who know You, and Your righteousness over the upright in heart. 10Extend your loyal love to your faithful followers, and vindicate the morally upright!
11Do not let the foot of the arrogant man come near me or the hand of the wicked one drive me away. 11Do not let arrogant men overtake me, or let evil men make me homeless!
12There the evildoers fall; they have been thrown down and cannot rise. 12I can see the evildoers! They have fallen! They have been knocked down and are unable to get up!
