< Psalms 36 >
1 To the Overseer. — By a servant of Jehovah, by David. The transgression of the wicked Is affirming within my heart, 'Fear of God is not before his eyes,
in finem servo Domini David dixit iniustus ut delinquat in semet ipso 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 intellegere ut bene ageret
4 Iniquity he deviseth on his bed, He stationeth himself on a way not good, Evil he doth not refuse.'
iniquitatem meditatus est in cubili suo adstetit omni viae non bonae malitiam autem non odivit
5 O Jehovah, in the heavens [is] Thy kindness, Thy faithfulness [is] unto the clouds.
Domine in caelo misericordia tua et veritas tua usque ad nubes
6 Thy righteousness [is] as mountains of God, Thy judgments [are] a great deep. Man and beast Thou savest, O Jehovah.
iustitia tua sicut montes Dei iudicia tua abyssus multa homines et iumenta salvabis Domine
7 How precious [is] Thy kindness, O God, And the sons of men In the shadow of Thy wings do trust.
quemadmodum multiplicasti misericordiam tuam Deus filii autem hominum in tegmine alarum tuarum sperabunt
8 They are filled from the fatness of Thy house, And the stream of Thy delights Thou dost cause them to drink.
inebriabuntur ab ubertate domus tuae et torrente voluntatis tuae potabis eos
9 For with Thee [is] a fountain of life, In Thy light we see light.
quoniam apud te fons vitae in lumine tuo videbimus lumen
10 Draw out Thy kindness to those knowing Thee, And Thy righteousness to the upright of heart.
praetende misericordiam tuam scientibus te et iustitiam tuam his qui recto sunt corde
11 Let not a foot of pride meet me, And a hand of the wicked let not move me.
non veniat mihi pes superbiae et manus peccatoris non moveat me
12 There have workers of iniquity fallen, They have been overthrown, And have not been able to arise!
ibi ceciderunt qui operantur iniquitatem expulsi sunt nec potuerunt stare
