36:1 To the chief Musician, [A Psalm] of David the servant of
the LORD. The transgression of the wicked saith within my
heart, [that there is] no fear of God before his eyes.
36:2 For he flattereth himself in his own eyes, until his
iniquity is found to be hateful.
36:3 The words of his mouth [are] iniquity and deceit: he hath
ceased to be wise, [and] to do good.
36:4 He deviseth mischief upon his bed; he setteth himself in a
way [that is] not good; he abhorreth not evil.
36:5 Thy mercy, O LORD, [is] in the heavens; [and] thy
faithfulness [reacheth] to the clouds.
36:6 Thy righteousness [is] like the great mountains; thy
judgments [are] a great deep: O LORD, thou preservest man and
beast.
36:7 How excellent [is] thy loving-kindness, O God! therefore
the children of men put their trust under the shadow of thy
wings.
36:8 They shall be abundantly satisfied with the fatness of thy
house; and thou shalt make them drink of the river of thy
pleasures.
36:9 For with thee [is] the fountain of life: in thy light shall
we see light.
36:10 O continue thy loving-kindness to them that know thee; and
thy righteousness to the upright in heart.
36:11 Let not the foot of pride come against me, and let not the
hand of the wicked remove me.
36:12 There are the workers of iniquity fallen: they are cast
down, and shall not be able to rise.
