Psalms 36

36
Psalm 36
The Lord's servant, David, wrote this song for the music leader.
A message from God
1A wicked person turns against God completely.
He does not respect God.
2He is too proud to think about his sin,
so he does not hate it.
3He speaks wicked things to deceive people.
He does nothing that is wise or good.
4While he lies on his bed at night,
he thinks about bad things that he can do.
He lives only to do things that are not good.
He does not turn away from evil things.
5 Lord your faithful love reaches as high as the sky.
People can trust you beyond the clouds.
6Your justice is like the strongest mountains.
You always do what is right,
more than the seas are deep. #36:6 The sky, the clouds, the mountains and the seas are all bigger than we can understand. But God is much greater than all these things that he has made.
You take care of people and animals
and you keep them safe.
7God, your faithful love has great value!
You keep all humans safe,
like birds protect their babies under their wings.
8You have plenty of food in your house,
to give them all that they need.
You give them water from your river,
that makes them happy when they drink it.
9Yes, you are the one who gives us light and life.
10Continue to love those who serve you as your people.
Let good, honest people receive your justice.
11Do not let proud people hurt me.
Do not let evil people chase me away from home.
12Now I see that those wicked people have fallen down!
They are lying there on the ground,
and they cannot get up again!
