Psalms - Chapter 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?   1

Your tongue plots destruction; it is like a sharpened razor, you who practice deceit.   2

You love evil rather than good, falsehood rather than speaking the truth.   3

You love every harmful word, O you deceitful tongue!   4

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.   5

The righteous will see and fear; they will laugh at him, saying,   6

"Here now is the man who did not make God his stronghold but trusted in his great wealth and grew strong by destroying others!"   7

But I am like an olive tree flourishing in the house of God; I trust in God's unfailing love for ever and ever.   8

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.   9
