GOD’S WORD Translation
For the choir director; by David, the Lord’s servant.
36 There is an inspired truth about the wicked person
who has rebellion in the depths of his heart:
He is not terrified of God.
2 He flatters himself and does not hate or ⌞even⌟ recognize his guilt.
3 The words from his mouth are ⌞nothing but⌟ trouble and deception.
He has stopped doing what is wise and good.
