Psalm 36:5-7
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
5 On his bed he hatches plots;
he sets out on a wicked way;
he does not reject evil.(A)
II
6 [a]Lord, your mercy reaches to heaven;
your fidelity, to the clouds.(B)
7 Your justice is like the highest mountains;
your judgments, like the mighty deep;
human being and beast you sustain, Lord.
