< Psalms 52 >
1 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.
Why boast thou thyself in mischief, O mighty man? The loving kindness of God is continual.
2 Destruction it plots tongue your like a razor sharpened O doer of deceit.
Thy tongue devises wickedness, like a sharp razor, working deceitfully.
3 You love evil more than good falsehood - more than speaking righteousness (Selah)
Thou love evil more than good, and lying rather than to speak righteousness. (Selah)
4 You love all words of swallowing a tongue of deceit.
Thou love all devouring words, O thou deceitful tongue.
5 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)
God will likewise destroy thee forever. He will take thee up, and pluck thee out of thy tent, and root thee out of the land of the living. (Selah)
6 So they may see righteous [people] so they may fear and on him they will laugh.
The righteous also shall see, and fear, and shall laugh at him, saying,
7 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.
Lo, this is the man who did not make God his strength, but trusted in the abundance of his riches, and strengthened himself in his wickedness.
8 And I - [am] like an olive tree luxuriant in [the] house of God I trust in [the] covenant loyalty of God forever and ever.
But as for me, I am like a green olive tree in the house of God. I trust in the loving kindness of God forever and ever.
9 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.
I will give thee thanks forever, because thou have done it. And I will hope in thy name in the presence of thy sanctified, for it is good.
