36:3 The words of his mouth are wickedness and deceit;
He has ceased to ①be wise and to do good.

36:4 He plans wickedness on his bed;
He sets himself on a path that is not good;
He does not reject evil.
36:5 Your mercy, LORD, ①extends to the heavens,
Your faithfulness reaches to the skies.
▷ ①Lit is in
36:6 Your righteousness is like the ①mountains of God;
Your judgments are like the great deep.
LORD, You ②protect mankind and animals.
▷ ①Or mighty mountains ②Or help
36:7 How precious is Your mercy, God!
And the sons of mankind take refuge in the shadow of Your wings.
36:8 They drink their fill of the ①abundance of Your house;
And You allow them to drink from the river of Your delights.
▷ ①Lit fatness
36:9 For the fountain of life is with You;
In Your light we see light.
36:10 Prolong Your mercy to those who know You,

And may the hand of the wicked not drive me away.

They have been thrust down and cannot rise.
