rsv Psalms:36 SEEK

*
To the choirmaster .
A Psalm of David ,
the servant of the LORD .
*
Transgression speaks to the wicked deep in his heart ;
there is no fear of God before his eyes .
*
For he flatters himself in his own eyes that his iniquity cannot be found out and hated .
*
The words of his mouth are mischief and deceit ;
he has ceased to act wisely and do good .
*
He plots mischief while on his bed ;
he sets himself in a way that is not good ;
he spurns not evil .
*
Thy steadfast love ,
O LORD ,
extends to the heavens ,
thy faithfulness to the clouds .
*
Thy righteousness is like the mountains of God ,
thy judgments are like the great deep ;
man and beast thou savest ,
O LORD .
*
How precious is thy steadfast love ,
O God !
The children of men take refuge in the shadow of thy wings .
*
They feast on the abundance of thy house ,
and thou givest them drink from the river of thy delights .
*
For with thee is the fountain of life ;
in thy light do we see light .
*
O continue thy steadfast love to those who know thee ,
and thy salvation to the upright of heart !
*
Let not the foot of arrogance come upon me ,
nor the hand of the wicked drive me away . [ (
Psalms strkjv @
36:13 )
There the evildoers lie prostrate ,
they are thrust down ,
unable to rise . ]
