Psalms 36

1 TO THE OVERSEER. BY A SERVANT OF YHWH, BY DAVID. The transgression of the wicked Is affirming within my heart, “Fear of God is not before his eyes,

Psalmus David, in finem, servo Domini. Dixit iniustus ut delinquat in semetipso: non est timor Dei ante oculos eius.

2 For he made [it] smooth to himself in his eyes, To find his iniquity to be hated.

Quoniam dolose egit in conspectu eius: ut inveniatur iniquitas eius ad odium.

3 The words of his mouth [are] iniquity and deceit, He ceased to act prudently—to do good.

Verba oris eius iniquitas, et dolus: noluit intelligere ut bene ageret.

4 He devises iniquity on his bed, He stations himself on a way not good, He does not refuse evil.”

Iniquitatem meditatus est in cubili suo: astitit omni viae non bonae, malitiam autem non odivit.

5 O YHWH, Your kindness [is] in the heavens, Your faithfulness [is] to the clouds.

Domine in caelo misericordia tua: et veritas tua usque ad nubes.

6 Your righteousness [is] as mountains of God, Your judgments [are] a great deep. You save man and beast, O YHWH.

Iustitia tua sicut montes Dei: iudicia tua abyssus multa. Homines, et iumenta salvabis Domine:

7 How precious [is] Your kindness, O God, And the sons of men trust In the shadow of Your wings.

quemadmodum multiplicasti misericordiam tuam Deus. Filii autem hominum, in tegmine alarum tuarum sperabunt.

8 They are filled from the fatness of Your house, And You cause them to drink the stream of Your delights.

Inebriabuntur ab ubertate domus tuae: et torrente voluptatis tuae potabis eos.

9 For a fountain of life [is] with You, In Your light we see light.

Quoniam apud te est fons vitae: et in lumine tuo videbimus lumen.

10 Draw out Your kindness to those knowing You, And Your righteousness to the upright of heart.

Praetende misericordiam tuam scientibus te, et iustitiam tuam his, qui recto sunt corde.

11 Do not let a foot of pride meet me, And do not let a hand of the wicked move me.

Non veniat mihi pes superbiae: et manus peccatoris non moveat me.

12 Workers of iniquity have fallen there, They have been overthrown, And have not been able to arise!

Ibi ceciderunt qui operantur iniquitatem: expulsi sunt, nec potuerunt stare.
