Psalm 36
For the director of music. Of David the servant of the Lord.
I have a message from God in my heart concerning the sinfulness of the wicked: There is no fear of God before their eyes.
-
In their own eyes they flatter themselves too much to detect or hate their sin.
-
Even on their beds they plot evil; they commit themselves to a sinful course and do not reject what is wrong.
-
But all sinners will be destroyed; there will be no future for the wicked.
-
Because of your wrath there is no health in my body; there is no soundness in my bones because of my sin.
-
My wounds fester and are loathsome because of my sinful folly.
-
I confess my iniquity; I am troubled by my sin.
-
Psalm 39
For the director of music. For Jeduthun. A psalm of David.
I said, “I will watch my ways and keep my tongue from sin; I will put a muzzle on my mouth while in the presence of the wicked.”
-
When you rebuke and discipline anyone for their sin, you consume their wealth like a moth— surely everyone is but a breath.
-
Sacrifice and offering you did not desire— but my ears you have opened— burnt offerings and sin offerings you did not require.
-
For troubles without number surround me; my sins have overtaken me, and I cannot see. They are more than the hairs of my head, and my heart fails within me.
-
I said, “Have mercy on me, Lord; heal me, for I have sinned against you.”
-
would not God have discovered it, since he knows the secrets of the heart?
-
You are the most excellent of men and your lips have been anointed with grace, since God has blessed you forever.
-
Sing praises to God, sing praises; sing praises to our King, sing praises.
-
For God is the King of all the earth; sing to him a psalm of praise.
-
Wash away all my iniquity and cleanse me from my sin.
-
For I know my transgressions, and my sin is always before me.
-
Against you, you only, have I sinned and done what is evil in your sight; so you are right in your verdict and justified when you judge.
-
Surely I was sinful at birth, sinful from the time my mother conceived me.
-
Hide your face from my sins and blot out all my iniquity.
