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