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.

To him that excelleth. A Psalme of Dauid to giue instruction. When Doeg the Edomite came and shewed Saul, and saide to him, Dauid is come to the house of Abimelech. Why boastest thou thy selfe in thy wickednesse, O man of power? the louing kindenesse of God indureth dayly.

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

Thy tongue imagineth mischiefe, and is like a sharpe rasor, that cutteth deceitfully.

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

Thou doest loue euill more then good, and lies more then to speake the trueth. (Selah)

4 You love all words of swallowing a tongue of deceit.

Thou louest all wordes that may destroye, O deceitfull 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)

So shall God destroy thee for euer: he shall take thee and plucke thee out of thy tabernacle, and roote thee out of ye land of the liuing. (Selah)

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

The righteous also shall see it, and feare, 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.

Beholde the man that tooke not God for his strength, but trusted vnto the multitude of his riches, and put his strength in his malice.

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 I shall bee like a greene oliue tree in the house of God: for I trusted in the mercie of God for euer and euer.

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 alway praise thee, for that thou hast done this, and I will hope in thy Name, because it is good before thy Saints.
