Psalm 36:1-4
<< Psalm 35 | Psalm 36 | Psalm 37 >>
How Precious Is Your Steadfast Love
To the choirmaster. Of David, the servant of the Lord.
36:1 Transgression speaks to the wicked
deep in his heart; [1]
there is no fear of God
before his eyes.
2 For he flatters himself in his own eyes
that his iniquity cannot be found out and hated.
3 The words of his mouth are trouble and deceit;
he has ceased to act wisely and do good.
4 He plots trouble while on his bed;
he sets himself in a way that is not good;
he does not reject evil.
