#Psalmtweet #Psalter 36:2 An oracle

 We have met the enemy ... (Pogo)

There are only two 'oracles' in the Psalter, Psalms 36 and 110.
Both are followed by acrostic poems (37 and 111-112).

נְאֻֽם־פֶּ֣שַׁע לָ֭רָשָׁע בְּקֶ֣רֶב לִבִּ֑י
אֵֽין־פַּ֥חַד אֱ֝לֹהִ֗ים לְנֶ֣גֶד עֵינָֽיו
2 An oracle on the transgression of the wicked within my heart,
there is no dread of God before its eyes.
