Psalms
52
- " Why do you boast of evil, you mighty
man? Why do you boast all day long, you who are a disgrace in the eyes of
God ?
- Your tongue plots destruction; it is like
a sharpened razor, you who practice deceit.
- You love evil rather than good, falsehood
rather than speaking the truth. Selah
- You love every harmful word, O you deceitful
tongue !
- Surely God will bring you down to everlasting
ruin: He will snatch you up and tear you from your tent; he will uproot you
from the land of the living. Selah
- The righteous will see and fear; they will
laugh at him, saying,
- "Here now is the man who did not make
God his stronghold but trusted in his great wealth and grew strong by destroying
others !"
- But I am like an olive tree flourishing
in the house of God; I trust in God's unfailing love for ever and ever.
- I will praise you forever for what you have
done; in your name I will hope, for your name is good. I will praise you in
the presence of your saints.
