Psalm 36:3-5
New Catholic Bible
3 He deludes himself with the idea
that his guilt will not be discovered and hated.[a]
4 The words his mouth utters are malicious and deceitful;
he has ceased to be wise and act uprightly.
5 Even when he lies on his bed,[b]
he is hatching evil plots.
He commits himself to a wicked course
and refuses to reject evil.
