Psalms - Chapter 36 | Good News Translation

  • 1. Sin speaks to the wicked deep in their hearts; they reject God and do not have reverence for him.
  • 2. Because they think so highly of themselves, they think that God will not discover their sin and condemn it.
  • 3. Their speech is wicked and full of lies; they no longer do what is wise and good.
  • 4. They make evil plans as they lie in bed; nothing they do is good, and they never reject anything evil.
  • 5. LORD, your constant love reaches the heavens; your faithfulness extends to the skies.
  • 6. Your righteousness is towering like the mountains; your justice is like the depths of the sea. People and animals are in your care.
  • 7. How precious, O God, is your constant love! We find protection under the shadow of your wings.
  • 8. We feast on the abundant food you provide; you let us drink from the river of your goodness.
  • 9. You are the source of all life, and because of your light we see the light.
  • 10. Continue to love those who know you and to do good to those who are righteous.
  • 11. Do not let proud people attack me or the wicked make me run away.
  • 12. See where evil people have fallen. There they lie, unable to rise.
