In Your Light We See Light

¹Transgression declares to the ungodly within his heart;[#36:1 Or An oracle of transgression is; #36:1 Lit wicked; #36:1 Or my heart]

There is no dread of God before his eyes.

²For it flatters him in his eyes

For one to discover his iniquity and hate it .

³The words of his mouth are wickedness and deceit;

He has ceased to consider to do good.

⁴He devises wickedness upon his bed;

He sets himself on a path that is not good;

He does not despise evil.

⁵¶Your lovingkindness, O Yahweh, is in the heavens,

Your faithfulness reaches to the skies.

⁶Your righteousness is like the mountains of God;[#36:6 Or mighty mountains]

Your judgments are like a great deep.

O Yahweh, You save man and beast.

⁷How precious is Your lovingkindness, O God!

And the sons of men take refuge in the shadow of Your wings.

⁸They are satisfied from the richness of Your house;[#36:8 Or drink their fill; #36:8 Lit fatness]

And You give them to drink of the river of Your delights.

⁹For with You is the fountain of life;

In Your light we see light.

¹⁰¶Continue Your lovingkindness to those who know You,

And Your righteousness to the upright in heart.

¹¹Let not the foot of pride come upon me,[#36:11 Lit lofty pride]

And let not the hand of the ungodly drive me away.

¹²There the workers of wickedness have fallen;

They have been thrust down and cannot rise.
