< Psalms 36 >

1 To the chief Musician, [A Psalm] of David the servant of the LORD. The transgression of the wicked saith within my heart, [that 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 he flattereth himself in his own eyes, until his iniquity is found to be hateful.
כִּֽי־הֶחֱלִיק אֵלָיו בְּעֵינָיו לִמְצֹא עֲוֺנוֹ לִשְׂנֹֽא׃
3 The words of his mouth [are] iniquity and deceit: he hath ceased to be wise, [and] to do good.
דִּבְרֵי־פִיו אָוֶן וּמִרְמָה חָדַל לְהַשְׂכִּיל לְהֵיטִֽיב׃
4 He deviseth mischief upon his bed; he setteth himself in a way [that is] not good; he abhorreth not evil.
אָוֶן ׀ יַחְשֹׁב עַֽל־מִשְׁכָּבוֹ יִתְיַצֵּב עַל־דֶּרֶךְ לֹא־טוֹב רָע לֹא יִמְאָֽס׃
5 Thy mercy, O LORD, [is] in the heavens; [and] thy faithfulness [reacheth] to the clouds.
יְהוָה בְּהַשָּׁמַיִם חַסְדֶּךָ אֱמֽוּנָתְךָ עַד־שְׁחָקִֽים׃
6 Thy righteousness [is] like the great mountains; thy judgments [are] a great deep: O LORD, thou preservest man and beast.
צִדְקָֽתְךָ ׀ כְּֽהַרְרֵי־אֵל מִשְׁפָּטֶךָ תְּהוֹם רַבָּה אָדָֽם־וּבְהֵמָה תוֹשִׁיעַ יְהוָֽה׃
7 How excellent [is] thy loving-kindness, O God! therefore the children of men put their trust under the shadow of thy wings.
מַה־יָּקָר חַסְדְּךָ אֱלֹהִים וּבְנֵי אָדָם בְּצֵל כְּנָפֶיךָ יֶחֱסָיֽוּן׃
8 They shall be abundantly satisfied with the fatness of thy house; and thou shalt make them drink of the river of thy pleasures.
יִרְוְיֻן מִדֶּשֶׁן בֵּיתֶךָ וְנַחַל עֲדָנֶיךָ תַשְׁקֵֽם׃
9 For with thee [is] the fountain of life: in thy light shall we see light.
כִּֽי־עִמְּךָ מְקוֹר חַיִּים בְּאוֹרְךָ נִרְאֶה־אֽוֹר׃
10 O continue thy loving-kindness to them that know thee; and thy righteousness to the upright in heart.
מְשֹׁךְ חַסְדְּךָ לְיֹדְעֶיךָ וְצִדְקָֽתְךָ לְיִשְׁרֵי־לֵֽב׃
11 Let not the foot of pride come against me, and let not the hand of the wicked remove me.
אַל־תְּבוֹאֵנִי רֶגֶל גַּאֲוָה וְיַד־רְשָׁעִים אַל־תְּנִדֵֽנִי׃
12 There are the workers of iniquity fallen: they are cast down, and shall not be able to rise.
שָׁם נָפְלוּ פֹּעֲלֵי אָוֶן דֹּחוּ וְלֹא־יָכְלוּ קֽוּם׃
