תהילים 36
| למנצח לעבד יהוה לדוד נאם פשע לרשע בקרב לבי אין פחד אלהים לנגד עיניו׃ | 1 |
An inner sanctuary is within my heart about the rebellious breach of relationship of the wicked: “There is no fear of Elohim ·Deity, Judge· before his eyes.”
| כי החליק אליו בעיניו למצא עונו לשנא׃ | 2 |
For he flatters himself in his own eyes, too much to detect and hate his depravity (moral evil).
| דברי פיו און ומרמה חדל להשכיל להיטיב׃ | 3 |
The words of his mouth are vain striving of iniquity and deceit. He has ceased to be wise and to do good.
| און יחשב על משכבו יתיצב על דרך לא טוב רע לא ימאס׃ | 4 |
He plots vain striving of iniquity on his bed. He sets himself in a way that is not good. He does not abhor evil.
| יהוה בהשמים חסדך אמונתך עד שחקים׃ | 5 |
Your chesed ·loving-kindness·, Adonai, is in the heavens. Your faithfulness reaches to the skies.
| צדקתך כהררי אל משפטך תהום רבה אדם ובהמה תושיע יהוה׃ | 6 |
Your righteousness is like the mountains of God. Your judgments are like a great deep. Adonai, you preserve man and animal.
| מה יקר חסדך אלהים ובני אדם בצל כנפיך יחסיון׃ | 7 |
How precious is your chesed ·loving-kindness·, God! The children of men take refuge under the shadow of your wings.
| ירוין מדשן ביתך ונחל עדניך תשקם׃ | 8 |
They shall be abundantly satisfied with the abundance of your house. You will make them drink of the river of your pleasures.
| כי עמך מקור חיים באורך נראה אור׃ | 9 |
For with you is the spring of life. In your light shall we see light.
| משך חסדך לידעיך וצדקתך לישרי לב׃ | 10 |
Oh continue your chesed ·loving-kindness· to those who know you, your righteousness to the upright in heart.
| אל תבואני רגל גאוה ויד רשעים אל תנדני׃ | 11 |
Don’t let the foot of pride come against me. Don’t let the hand of the wicked drive me away.
| שם נפלו פעלי און דחו ולא יכלו קום׃ | 12 |
There the workers of vain striving of iniquity are fallen. They are thrust down, and shall not be able to rise.
