Psalms 36
1 [Wicked people continually desire to] sin. They consider [IDM] that they do not need to revere God.
in finem servo Domini David dixit iniustus ut delinquat in semet ipso non est timor Dei ante oculos eius
2 Because they are very proud, they do not think that God will discover their sins and condemn them (OR, they do not think about their sins and hate themselves for it).
quoniam dolose egit in conspectu eius ut inveniatur iniquitas eius ad odium
3 [Everything] that they say is deceitful and full of lies; they no longer do what is good and are no longer wise.
verba oris eius iniquitas et dolus noluit intellegere ut bene ageret
4 While they are lying on their beds, they plan to do things to harm [others]; they are determined to do things that are not good, and they never refuse [to do what is] evil.
iniquitatem meditatus est in cubili suo adstetit omni viae non bonae malitiam autem non odivit
5 Yahweh, your faithful love for us reaches as high as the heavens, you faithfully [do what you have promised]; [it is as though your doing that] extends up to the clouds.
Domine in caelo misericordia tua et veritas tua usque ad nubes
6 Your righteous behavior is [as permanent as] the highest mountains [MET], your acting justly [will continue as long as] the deepest oceans [exist]. You take care of people and you take care of animals.
iustitia tua sicut montes Dei iudicia tua abyssus multa homines et iumenta salvabis Domine
7 God, your faithful love for us is very precious. You protect us like birds protect their baby birds under their wings [MET].
quemadmodum multiplicasti misericordiam tuam Deus filii autem hominum in tegmine alarum tuarum sperabunt
8 You provide for us plenty of food from the abundant supply [IDM] that you have; your great blessings for us [flow] like a river.
inebriabuntur ab ubertate domus tuae et torrente voluntatis tuae potabis eos
9 You are the one who causes everything to live; your light is what enables us to see.
quoniam apud te fons vitae in lumine tuo videbimus lumen
10 Continue to faithfully love those who have experienced a relationship with you, and bless those who act righteously/justly.
praetende misericordiam tuam scientibus te et iustitiam tuam his qui recto sunt corde
11 Do not allow proud people [SYN] to attack me, or allow wicked people to chase me away.
non veniat mihi pes superbiae et manus peccatoris non moveat me
12 Look where evil people have fallen on the ground, defeated; they were thrown down, and they will never rise again.
ibi ceciderunt qui operantur iniquitatem expulsi sunt nec potuerunt stare
