耶和华的仆人大卫的诗。交给圣咏团长。

人的邪恶

36 过犯在恶人的心底向他说话[a]
    他的眼中不怕 神。
他自夸自媚,
    以致罪孽无法察觉,不被恨恶。
他口中的言语尽是罪孽诡诈,
    他不再有智慧,也不再行善。
他在床上图谋罪孽,
    定意行不善的道,不憎恶恶事。

 神的良善

耶和华啊,你的慈爱上及诸天,
    你的信实达到穹苍,
你的公义好像高山,
    你的判断如同深渊;
耶和华啊,人民、牲畜,你都救护。
 神啊,你的慈爱何其宝贵!
    世人投靠在你翅膀的荫下。
他们必因你殿里的丰盛得以饱足,
    你也必叫他们喝你那喜乐的泉水。
因为在你那里有生命的泉源,
    在你的光中,我们必得见光。

10 愿你常施慈爱给认识你的人,
    常以公义待心里正直的人。
11 不容骄傲人的脚践踏我,
    不容凶恶人的手赶逐我。
12 在那里,作恶的人已经仆倒;
    他们被推倒,不能再起来。

[b]

How Precious Is Your Steadfast Love

To the choirmaster. Of David, the (A)servant of the Lord.

36 Transgression speaks to the wicked
    deep in his heart;[a]
(B)there is no fear of God
    before his eyes.
(C)For he flatters himself in his own eyes
    that his iniquity cannot be found out and hated.
The words of his mouth are (D)trouble and deceit;
    (E)he has ceased to act wisely and do good.
He (F)plots (G)trouble while on his bed;
    he sets himself in (H)a way that is not good;
    (I)he does not reject evil.

Your steadfast love, O Lord, extends to the heavens,
    your faithfulness to the clouds.
(J)Your righteousness is like the mountains of God;
    (K)your judgments are like the great deep;
    man and beast you (L)save, O Lord.

(M)How precious is your steadfast love, O God!
    The children of mankind take refuge (N)in the shadow of your wings.
They feast on (O)the abundance of your house,
    and you give them drink from (P)the river of (Q)your delights.
For with you is (R)the fountain of life;
    (S)in your light do we see light.

10 Oh, continue your steadfast love to those who (T)know you,
    and your righteousness to (U)the upright of heart!
11 Let not the foot of arrogance come upon me,
    nor the hand of the wicked drive me away.
12 There (V)the evildoers lie fallen;
    they are thrust down, (W)unable to rise.

Psalm 36[a]

For the director of music. Of David the servant of the Lord.

I have a message from God in my heart
    concerning the sinfulness of the wicked:[b](A)
There is no fear(B) of God
    before their eyes.(C)

In their own eyes they flatter themselves
    too much to detect or hate their sin.(D)
The words of their mouths(E) are wicked and deceitful;(F)
    they fail to act wisely(G) or do good.(H)
Even on their beds they plot evil;(I)
    they commit themselves to a sinful course(J)
    and do not reject what is wrong.(K)

Your love, Lord, reaches to the heavens,
    your faithfulness(L) to the skies.(M)
Your righteousness(N) is like the highest mountains,(O)
    your justice like the great deep.(P)
    You, Lord, preserve both people and animals.(Q)
How priceless is your unfailing love, O God!(R)
    People take refuge in the shadow of your wings.(S)
They feast on the abundance of your house;(T)
    you give them drink from your river(U) of delights.(V)
For with you is the fountain of life;(W)
    in your light(X) we see light.

10 Continue your love(Y) to those who know you,(Z)
    your righteousness to the upright in heart.(AA)
11 May the foot of the proud not come against me,
    nor the hand of the wicked(AB) drive me away.
12 See how the evildoers lie fallen—
    thrown down, not able to rise!(AC)
