Psalms 36
1 For the choirmaster. A Psalm of David, the servant of the LORD. An oracle is in my heart regarding the transgression of the wicked man: There is no fear of God before his eyes.
| לַמְנַצֵּחַ ׀ לְעֶֽבֶד־יְהוָה לְדָוִֽד׃ נְאֻֽם־פֶּשַׁע לָרָשָׁע בְּקֶרֶב לִבִּי אֵֽין־פַּחַד אֱלֹהִים לְנֶגֶד עֵינָֽיו׃ |
2 For his eyes are too full of conceit to detect or hate his own sin.
| כִּֽי־הֶחֱלִיק אֵלָיו בְּעֵינָיו לִמְצֹא עֲוֺנוֹ לִשְׂנֹֽא׃ |
3 The words of his mouth are wicked and deceitful; he has ceased to be wise and well-doing.
| דִּבְרֵי־פִיו אָוֶן וּמִרְמָה חָדַל לְהַשְׂכִּיל לְהֵיטִֽיב׃ |
4 Even on his bed he plots wickedness; he sets himself on a path that is not good; he fails to reject evil.
| אָוֶן ׀ יַחְשֹׁב עַֽל־מִשְׁכָּבוֹ יִתְיַצֵּב עַל־דֶּרֶךְ לֹא־טוֹב רָע לֹא יִמְאָֽס׃ |
5 Your loving devotion, O LORD, reaches to the heavens, Your faithfulness to the clouds.
| יְהוָה בְּהַשָּׁמַיִם חַסְדֶּךָ אֱמֽוּנָתְךָ עַד־שְׁחָקִֽים׃ |
6 Your righteousness is like the highest mountains; Your judgments are like the deepest sea. O LORD, You preserve man and beast.
| צִדְקָֽתְךָ ׀ כְּֽהַרְרֵי־אֵל מִשְׁפָּטֶךָ תְּהוֹם רַבָּה אָדָֽם־וּבְהֵמָה תוֹשִׁיעַ יְהוָֽה׃ |
7 How precious is Your loving devotion, O God, that the children of men take refuge in the shadow of Your wings!
| מַה־יָּקָר חַסְדְּךָ אֱלֹהִים וּבְנֵי אָדָם בְּצֵל כְּנָפֶיךָ יֶחֱסָיֽוּן׃ |
8 They feast on the abundance of Your house, and You give them drink from Your river of delights.
| יִרְוְיֻן מִדֶּשֶׁן בֵּיתֶךָ וְנַחַל עֲדָנֶיךָ תַשְׁקֵֽם׃ |
9 For with You is the fountain of life; in Your light we see light.
| כִּֽי־עִמְּךָ מְקוֹר חַיִּים בְּאוֹרְךָ נִרְאֶה־אֽוֹר׃ |
10 Extend Your loving devotion to those who know You, and Your righteousness to the upright in heart.
| מְשֹׁךְ חַסְדְּךָ לְיֹדְעֶיךָ וְצִדְקָֽתְךָ לְיִשְׁרֵי־לֵֽב׃ |
11 Let not the foot of the proud come against me, nor the hand of the wicked drive me away.
| אַל־תְּבוֹאֵנִי רֶגֶל גַּאֲוָה וְיַד־רְשָׁעִים אַל־תְּנִדֵֽנִי׃ |
12 There the evildoers lie fallen, thrown down and unable to rise.
| שָׁם נָפְלוּ פֹּעֲלֵי אָוֶן דֹּחוּ וְלֹא־יָכְלוּ קֽוּם׃ |
