Psalm 36:1-3

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

Psalm 36

Human Wickedness and Divine Goodness

To the leader. Of David, the servant of the Lord.

¹Transgression speaks to the wicked
    deep in their hearts;
there is no fear of God
    before their eyes.
²For they flatter themselves in their own eyes
    that their iniquity cannot be found out and hated.
³The words of their mouths are mischief and deceit;
    they have ceased to act wisely and do good.
