Psalm 36:1–4

1  Transgression speaks to the wicked

deep in his heart;1

ythere is no fear of God

before his eyes.

2  zFor he flatters himself in his own eyes

that his iniquity cannot be found out and hated.

3  The words of his mouth are atrouble and deceit;

bhe has ceased to act wisely and do good.

4  He cplots dtrouble while on his bed;

he sets himself in ea way that is not good;

fhe does not reject evil.
