< Psalms 36 >

1 [Wicked people continually desire to] sin. They consider [IDM] that they do not need to revere God.
למנצח לעבד-יהוה לדוד ב נאם-פשע לרשע בקרב לבי אין-פחד אלהים לנגד עיניו
2 Because they are very proud, they do not think that God will discover their sins and condemn them (OR, they do not think about their sins and hate themselves for it).
כי-החליק אליו בעיניו למצא עונו לשנא
3 [Everything] that they say is deceitful and full of lies; they no longer do what is good and are no longer wise.
דברי-פיו און ומרמה חדל להשכיל להיטיב
4 While they are lying on their beds, they plan to do things to harm [others]; they are determined to do things that are not good, and they never refuse [to do what is] evil.
און יחשב--על-משכבו יתיצב על-דרך לא-טוב רע לא ימאס
5 Yahweh, your faithful love for us reaches as high as the heavens, you faithfully [do what you have promised]; [it is as though your doing that] extends up to the clouds.
יהוה בהשמים חסדך אמונתך עד-שחקים
6 Your righteous behavior is [as permanent as] the highest mountains [MET], your acting justly [will continue as long as] the deepest oceans [exist]. You take care of people and you take care of animals.
צדקתך כהררי-אל--משפטיך תהום רבה אדם ובהמה תושיע יהוה
7 God, your faithful love for us is very precious. You protect us like birds protect their baby birds under their wings [MET].
מה-יקר חסדך אלהים ובני אדם--בצל כנפיך יחסיון
8 You provide for us plenty of food from the abundant supply [IDM] that you have; your great blessings for us [flow] like a river.
ירוין מדשן ביתך ונחל עדניך תשקם
9 You are the one who causes everything to live; your light is what enables us to see.
כי-עמך מקור חיים באורך נראה-אור
10 Continue to faithfully love those who have experienced a relationship with you, and bless those who act righteously/justly.
משך חסדך לידעיך וצדקתך לישרי-לב
11 Do not allow proud people [SYN] to attack me, or allow wicked people to chase me away.
אל-תבואני רגל גאוה ויד-רשעים אל-תנדני
12 Look where evil people have fallen on the ground, defeated; they were thrown down, and they will never rise again.
שם נפלו פעלי און דחו ולא-יכלו קום
