Psalm 36:
5 Your lovingkindness and graciousness, O LORD, extend to the skies, Your faithfulness [reaches] to the clouds.
[6] Your righteousness is like the mountains of God, Your judgments are like the great deep. O LORD, You preserve man and beast.
[7] How precious is Your lovingkindness, O God! The children of men take refuge in the shadow of Your wings.
[8] They drink their fill of the abundance of Your house; And You allow them to drink from the river of Your delights.
[9] For with You is the fountain of life [the fountain of life-giving water]; In Your light we see light.
[10] O continue Your lovingkindness to those who know You, And Your righteousness (salvation) to the upright in heart.
Psalm 39:
5 Behold, You have made my days as [short as] hand widths, And my lifetime is as nothing in Your sight. Surely every man at his best is a mere breath [a wisp of smoke, a vapor that vanishes]! Selah.
[6] Surely every man walks around like a shadow [in a charade]; Surely they make an uproar for nothing; Each one builds up riches, not knowing who will receive them.
[7] “And now, Lord, for what do I expectantly wait? My hope [my confident expectation] is in You.
Psalm 40:
4 Blessed [fortunate, prosperous, and favored by God] is the man who makes the LORD his trust, And does not regard the proud nor those who lapse into lies.
[5] Many, O LORD my God, are the wonderful works which You have done, And Your thoughts toward us; There is none to compare with You. If I would declare and speak of your wonders, They would be too many to count.
[6] Sacrifice and meal offering You do not desire, nor do You delight in them; You have opened my ears and given me the capacity to hear [and obey Your word]; Burnt offerings and sin offerings You do not require.
[7] Then I said, “Behold, I come [to the throne]; In the scroll of the book it is written of me.
[8] I delight to do Your will, O my God; Your law is within my heart.”
[9] I have proclaimed good news of righteousness [and the joy that comes from obedience to You] in the great assembly; Behold, I will not restrain my lips [from proclaiming Your righteousness], As You know, O LORD.
