Psalm 36:1-3

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

Psalm 36

To the Chief Musician. [A Psalm] of David the servant of the Lord.

¹ Transgression [like an oracle] speaks to the wicked deep in his heart. There is no fear or dread of God before his eyes.^(A)

² For he flatters and deceives himself in his own eyes that his iniquity will not be found out and be hated.

³ The words of his mouth are wrong and deceitful; he has ceased to be wise and to do good.
