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.

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.

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

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

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

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

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

Thou lovest all devouring words, the 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 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)

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:

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 that made not God his stronghold; 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 leafy olive-tree in the house of God; I trust in the mercy of God for ever 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 for ever, because Thou hast done it; and I will wait for Thy name, for it is good, in the presence of Thy saints.
