Psalm 36
NET Parallel ESV [BSB CSB ESV HCS KJV ISV NAS NET NIV NLT HEB]
NET BibleEnglish Standard Version
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, 1Transgression speaks to the wicked deep in his heart; there is no fear of God before his eyes.
2for he is too proud to recognize and give up his sin. 2For he flatters himself in his own eyes that his iniquity cannot be found out and hated.
3The words he speaks are sinful and deceitful; he does not care about doing what is wise and right. 3The words of his mouth are trouble and deceit; he has ceased to act wisely and do good.
4He plans ways to sin while he lies in bed; he is committed to a sinful lifestyle; he does not reject what is evil. 4He plots trouble while on his bed; he sets himself in a way that is not good; he does not reject evil.
5O LORD, your loyal love reaches to the sky; your faithfulness to the clouds. 5Your steadfast love, O LORD, extends to the heavens, your faithfulness to the clouds.
6Your justice is like the highest mountains, your fairness like the deepest sea; you preserve mankind and the animal kingdom. 6Your righteousness is like the mountains of God; your judgments are like the great deep; man and beast you save, O LORD.
7How precious is your loyal love, O God! The human race finds shelter under your wings. 7How precious is your steadfast love, O God! The children of mankind take refuge in the shadow of your wings.
8They are filled with food from your house, and you allow them to drink from the river of your delicacies. 8They feast on the abundance of your house, and you give them drink from the river of your delights.
9For you are the one who gives and sustains life. 9For with you is the fountain of life; in your light do we see light.
10Extend your loyal love to your faithful followers, and vindicate the morally upright! 10Oh, continue your steadfast love to those who know you, and your righteousness to the upright of heart!
11Do not let arrogant men overtake me, or let evil men make me homeless! 11Let not the foot of arrogance come upon me, nor the hand of the wicked drive me away.
12I can see the evildoers! They have fallen! They have been knocked down and are unable to get up! 12There the evildoers lie fallen; they are thrust down, unable to rise.
