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 (36:1)

For he flattereth himself in his own eyes, until his iniquity be found to be hateful (36:2)

The words of his mouth are iniquity and deceit: he hath left off to be wise, and to do good (36:3)

He deviseth mischief upon his bed; he setteth himself in a way that is not good; he abhorreth not evil (36:4)

Thy mercy, O Lord, is in the heavens; and thy faithfulness reacheth unto the clouds (36:5)

Thy righteousness is like the great mountains; thy judgments are a great deep: O Lord, thou preservest man and beast (36:6)

How excellent is thy lovingkindness, O God! therefore the children of men put their trust under the shadow of thy wings (36:7)

They shall be abundantly satisfied with the fatness of thy house; and thou shalt make them drink of the river of thy pleasures (36:8)

For with thee is the fountain of life: in thy light shall we see light (36:9)

O continue thy lovingkindness unto them that know thee; and thy righteousness to the upright in heart (36:10)

Let not the foot of pride come against me, and let not the hand of the wicked remove me (36:11)

There are the workers of iniquity fallen: they are cast down, and shall not be able to rise (36:12)
