Psalms Chapter 36 Original 1611 KJV Bible Scan

CHAP. XXXVI.

1 The grieuous estate of the wicked. 5 The excellencie of Gods mercie. 10 Dauid prayeth for fauour to Gods children.

¹ [To the chiefe musician, A Psalme of Dauid, the seruant of the Lord.] The transgression of the wicked saith within my heart, that there is no feare of God before his eyes.

² For he flatterech himselfe in his owne eyes, vntill his iniquitie be found to be hatefull.²

³ The words of his mouth are iniquitie and deceit: he hath left off to bee wise, and to doe good.

⁴ Hee deuiseth mischiefe vpon his bed, he setteth himselfe in a way that is not good; he abhorreth not euill.⁴

⁵ Thy mercie (O Lord) is in the heauens; and thy faithfulnesse reacheth vnto the cloudes.⁵

⁶ Thy righteousnesse is like the great mountaines; thy iudgements are a great deepe; O Lord, thou preseruest man and beast.⁶

⁷ How excellent is thy louing kindnesse, O God! therefore the children of men put their trust vnder the shadowe of thy wings.⁷

⁸ They shall be abundantly satisfied with the fatnesse of thy house: and thou shalt make them drinke of the riuer of thy pleasures.⁸

⁹ For with thee is the fountaine of life: in thy light shall we see light.

¹⁰ O continue thy louing kindnesse vnto them that know thee; and thy righteousnesse to the vpright in heart.¹⁰

¹¹ Let not the foot of pride come against me, and let not the hand of the wicked remoue me.

¹² There are the workers of iniquitie fallen: they are cast downe, and shal not be able to rise.
