< Psalms 52 >
1 TO THE OVERSEER. AN INSTRUCTION OF DAVID, IN THE COMING IN OF DOEG THE EDOMITE, AND HE DECLARES TO SAUL AND SAYS TO HIM, “DAVID CAME TO THE HOUSE OF AHIMELECH.” Why do you boast in evil, O mighty one? The kindness of God [is] all the day.
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 Your tongue devises mischiefs, Like a sharp razor, working deceit.
Destruction it plots tongue your like a razor sharpened O doer of deceit.
3 You have loved evil rather than good, Lying, than speaking righteousness. (Selah)
You love evil more than good falsehood - more than speaking righteousness (Selah)
4 You have loved all devouring words, O you deceitful tongue.
You love all words of swallowing a tongue of deceit.
5 Also—God breaks you down forever, Takes you, and pulls you out of the tent, And He has uprooted you 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 And the righteous see, And fear, and laugh at him.
So they may see righteous [people] so they may fear and on him they will laugh.
7 “Behold, the man who does not make God his strong place, And trusts in the abundance of his riches, He is strong in his mischiefs.”
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 And I, as a green olive in the house of God, I have trusted in the kindness of God, For all time and forever,
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 thank You for all time, because You have done [it], And I wait [on] Your Name for [it is] good before Your 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.
