시편 36

1악인의 죄얼이 내 마음에 이르기를 그 목전에는 하나님을 두려워함이 없다 하니 2저가 스스로 자긍하기를 자기 죄악이 드러나지 아니하고 미워함을 받지도 아니하리라 함이로다 3그 입의 말은 죄악과 궤휼이라 지혜와 선행을 그쳤도다 4저는 그 침상에서 죄악을 꾀하며 스스로 불선한 길에 서고 악을 싫어하지 아니하는도다 5여호와여 주의 인자하심이 하늘에 있고 주의 성실하심이 공중에 사무쳤으며 6주의 의는 하나님의 산들과 같고 주의 판단은 큰 바다와 일반이라 여호와여 주는 사람과 짐승을 보호하시나이다 7하나님이여 주의 인자하심이 어찌 그리 보배로우신지요 인생이 주의 날개 그늘 아래 피하나이다 8저희가 주의 집의 살찐 것으로 풍족할 것이라 주께서 주의 복락의 강수로 마시우시리이다 9대저 생명의 원천이 주께 있사오니 주의 광명 중에 우리가 광명을 보리이다 10주를 아는 자에게 주의 인자하심을 계속하시며 마음이 정직한 자에게 주의 의를 베푸소서 11교만한 자의 발이 내게 미치지 못하게 하시며 악인의 손이 나를 쫓아내지 못하게 하소서 12죄악을 행하는 자가 거기 넘어졌으니 엎드러지고 다시 일어날 수 없으리이다

1An oracle is within my heart about the disobedience of the wicked: “There is no fear of God before his eyes.” 2For he flatters himself in his own eyes, too much to detect and hate his sin. 3The words of his mouth are iniquity and deceit. He has ceased to be wise and to do good. 4He plots iniquity on his bed. He sets himself in a way that is not good. He doesn’t abhor evil. 5Your loving kindness, Yahweh, is in the heavens. Your faithfulness reaches to the skies. 6Your righteousness is like the mountains of God. Your judgments are like a great deep. Yahweh, you preserve man and animal. 7How precious is your loving kindness, God! The children of men take refuge under the shadow of your wings. 8They shall be abundantly satisfied with the abundance of your house. You will make them drink of the river of your pleasures. 9For with you is the spring of life. In your light shall we see light. 10Oh continue your loving kindness to those who know you, your righteousness to the upright in heart. 11Don’t let the foot of pride come against me. Don’t let the hand of the wicked drive me away. 12There the workers of iniquity are fallen. They are thrust down, and shall not be able to rise.

1Een psalm van David, den knecht des HEEREN, voor den opperzangmeester. 2De overtreding des goddelozen spreekt in het binnenste van mijn hart: Er is geen vreze Gods voor zijn ogen. 3Want hij vleit zichzelven in zijn ogen, als men zijn ongerechtigheid bevindt, die te haten is. 4De woorden zijns monds zijn onrecht en bedrog; hij laat na te verstaan tot weldoen. 5Hij bedenkt onrecht op zijn leger; hij stelt zich op een weg, die niet goed is; het kwaad verwerpt hij niet. 6O HEERE! Uw goedertierenheid is tot in de hemelen; Uw waarheid tot de bovenste wolken toe. 7Uw gerechtigheid is als de bergen Gods; Uw oordelen zijn een grote afgrond; HEERE! Gij behoudt mensen en beesten. 8Hoe dierbaar is Uw goedertierenheid, o God! Dies de mensenkinderen onder de schaduw Uwer vleugelen toevlucht nemen. 9Zij worden dronken van de vettigheid Uws huizes; en Gij drenkt hen uit de beek Uwer wellusten. 10Want bij U is de fontein des levens; in Uw licht zien wij het licht. 11Strek Uw goedertierenheid uit over degenen, die U kennen, en Uw gerechtigheid over de oprechten van hart. 12De voet der hovaardigen kome niet over mij, en de hand der goddelozen doe mij niet omzwerven. Aldaar zijn de werkers der ongerechtigheid gevallen; zij zijn nedergestoten, en kunnen niet weder opstaan.
