Psalms 52

1 For the choirmaster. A Maskil of David. After Doeg the Edomite went to Saul and told him, “David has gone to the house of Ahimelech.” Why do you boast of evil, O mighty man? The loving devotion of God endures all day long.

以东人多益来告诉扫罗说：“大卫到了亚希米勒家。”那时，大卫作这训诲诗，交与伶长。 勇士啊，你为何以作恶自夸？ 神的慈爱是常存的。

2 Your tongue devises destruction like a sharpened razor, O worker of deceit.

你的舌头邪恶诡诈， 好像剃头刀，快利伤人。

3 You love evil more than good, falsehood more than speaking truth.

你爱恶胜似爱善， 又爱说谎，不爱说公义。 (细拉)

4 You love every word that devours, O deceitful tongue.

诡诈的舌头啊， 你爱说一切毁灭的话！

5 Surely God will bring you down to everlasting ruin; He will snatch you up and tear you away from your tent; He will uproot you from the land of the living.

神也要毁灭你，直到永远； 他要把你拿去，从你的帐棚中抽出， 从活人之地将你拔出。 (细拉)

6 The righteous will see and fear; they will mock the evildoer, saying,

义人要看见而惧怕， 并要笑他，

7 “Look at the man who did not make God his refuge, but trusted in the abundance of his wealth and strengthened himself by destruction.”

说：看哪，这就是那不以 神为他力量的人， 只倚仗他丰富的财物，在邪恶上坚立自己。

8 But I am like an olive tree flourishing in the house of God; I trust in the loving devotion of God forever and ever.

至于我，就像 神殿中的青橄榄树； 我永永远远倚靠 神的慈爱。

9 I will praise You forever, because You have done it. I will wait on Your name— for it is good— in the presence of Your saints.

我要称谢你，直到永远， 因为你行了这事。 我也要在你圣民面前仰望你的名； 这名本为美好。
