For the director of music. A psalm of David, the servant of the Lord.

36 I have a message from God in my heart.
    It is about the evil ways of anyone who sins.
    They don’t have any respect for God.
They praise themselves so much
    that they can’t see their sin or hate it.
Their mouths speak words that are evil and false.
    They do not act wisely or do what is good.
Even as they lie in bed they make evil plans.
    They commit themselves to a sinful way of life.
    They never say no to what is wrong.

Lord, your love is as high as the heavens.
    Your faithful love reaches up to the skies.
Your holiness is as great as the height of the highest mountains.
    You are as honest as the oceans are deep.
Lord, you keep people and animals safe.
    How priceless your faithful love is!
    People find safety in the shadow of your wings.
They eat well because there is more than enough in your house.
    You let them drink from your river that flows with good things.
You have the fountain of life.
    We are filled with light because you give us light.

10 Keep on loving those who know you.
    Keep on doing right to those whose hearts are honest.
11 Don’t let the feet of those who are proud step on me.
    Don’t let the hands of those who are evil drive me away.
12 See how those who do evil have fallen!
    They are thrown down and can’t get up.
