Psalms 36:5

God's loveGod's faithfulnessPraise and worship

3 The words of his mouth are wicked and deceitful; he has ceased to be wise and well-doing.

4 Even on his bed he plots wickedness; he sets himself on a path that is not good; he fails to reject evil.

Your loving devotion, O LORD, reaches to the heavens, Your faithfulness to the clouds.

6 Your righteousness is like the highest mountains; Your judgments are like the deepest sea. O LORD, You preserve man and beast.

7 How precious is Your loving devotion, O God, that the children of men take refuge in the shadow of Your wings!
