The Message Bible

Psalms Chapter: 36

1: The God--rebel tunes in to sedition--all ears, eager to sin. He has no regard for God, he stands insolent before him.

2: He has smooth-talked himself into believing That his evil will never be noticed.

3: Words gutter from his mouth, dishwater dirty. Can't remember when he did anything decent.

4: Every time he goes to bed, he fathers another evil plot. When he's loose on the streets, nobody's safe. He plays with fire and doesn't care who gets burned.

5: God's love is meteoric, his loyalty astronomic,

6: His purpose titanic, his verdicts oceanic. Yet in his largeness nothing gets lost; Not a man, not a mouse, slips through the cracks.

7: How exquisite your love, O God! How eager we are to run under your wings,

8: To eat our fill at the banquet you spread as you fill our tankards with Eden spring water.

9: You're a fountain of cascading light, and you open our eyes to light.

10: Keep on loving your friends; do your work in welcoming hearts.

11: Don't let the bullies kick me around, the moral midgets slap me down.

12: Send the upstarts sprawling flat on their faces in the mud.
