Psalms 52

1 For the Leader. Maschil of David; when Doeg the Edomite came and told Saul, and said unto him: 'David is come to the house of Ahimelech.' Why boastest thou thyself of evil, O mighty man? The mercy of God endureth continually.

To the choirmaster a poem of David. When came - Doeg the Edomite and he told to Saul and he said to him he has gone David to [the] house of Ahimelech. Why? do you boast in evil O mighty [man] [the] covenant loyalty of God [is] all the day.

2 Thy tongue deviseth destruction; like a sharp razor, working deceitfully.

Destruction it plots tongue your like a razor sharpened O doer of deceit.

3 Thou lovest evil more than good; falsehood rather than speaking righteousness. (Selah)

You love evil more than good falsehood - more than speaking righteousness (Selah)

4 Thou lovest all devouring words, the deceitful tongue.

You love all words of swallowing a tongue of deceit.

5 God will likewise break thee for ever, He will take thee up, and pluck thee out of thy tent, and root thee out of the land of the living. (Selah)

Also God he will tear down you to perpetuity he will snatch up you and he will tear away you from a tent and he will root up you from [the] land of living [people] (Selah)

6 The righteous also shall see, and fear, and shall laugh at him:

So they may see righteous [people] so they may fear and on him they will laugh.

7 'Lo, this is the man that made not God his stronghold; but trusted in the abundance of his riches, and strengthened himself in his wickedness.'

There! the man [who] not he made God refuge his and he trusted in [the] greatness of rich[es] his he was strong in destruction his.

8 But as for me, I am like a leafy olive-tree in the house of God; I trust in the mercy of God for ever and ever.

And I - [am] like an olive tree luxuriant in [the] house of God I trust in [the] covenant loyalty of God forever and ever.

9 I will give Thee thanks for ever, because Thou hast done it; and I will wait for Thy name, for it is good, in the presence of Thy saints.

I will give thanks to you for ever for you have acted and I may wait for name your for [it is] good before faithful [people] your.
