Psalm 36 :: Legacy Standard Bible (LSB)

In Your Light We See Light

Psa 36:1

For the choir director. Of the servant of Yahweh, of David.

[fn]Transgression declares to the [fn]ungodly within [fn]his heart;

There is no dread of God before his eyes.

Psa 36:2

For it flatters him in his eyes

For one to discover his iniquity and hate it.

Psa 36:3

The words of his mouth are wickedness and deceit;

He has ceased to consider to do good.

Psa 36:4

He devises wickedness upon his bed;

He sets himself on a path that is not good;

He does not despise evil.

Psa 36:5

Your lovingkindness, O Yahweh, is in the heavens,

Your faithfulness reaches to the skies.

Psa 36:6

Your righteousness is like the [fn]mountains of God;

Your judgments are like a great deep.

O Yahweh, You save man and beast.

Psa 36:7

How precious is Your lovingkindness, O God!

And the sons of men take refuge in the shadow of Your wings.

Psa 36:8

They [fn]are satisfied from the [fn]richness of Your house;

And You give them to drink of the river of Your delights.

Psa 36:9

For with You is the fountain of life;

In Your light we see light.

Psa 36:10

Continue Your lovingkindness to those who know You,

And Your righteousness to the upright in heart.

Psa 36:11

Let not the foot of [fn]pride come upon me,

And let not the hand of the [fn]ungodly drive me away.

Psa 36:12

There the workers of wickedness have fallen;

They have been thrust down and cannot rise.
