< 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 chief musician. A maschil of David; when Doeg the Edomite came and told Saul, and said to him, “David has come to the house of Ahimelech.” Why are you proud of making trouble, you mighty man? The covenant faithfulness of God comes every day.
2 Destruction it plots tongue your like a razor sharpened O doer of deceit.
Your tongue plans destruction like a sharp razor, working deceitfully.
3 You love evil more than good falsehood - more than speaking righteousness (Selah)
You love evil more than good and lying rather than speaking righteousness. (Selah)
4 You love all words of swallowing a tongue of deceit.
You love all words that devour others, you 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 you forever; he will take you up and pluck you out of your tent and root you 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 will also see it and fear; they will laugh at him and say,
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.
“See, this is a man who did not make God his refuge, but he trusted in the abundance of his wealth, and he was strong when he destroyed others.”
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 God's house; I will trust in the covenant faithfulness 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 you thanks forever for what you have done. I will wait for your name, because it is good, in the presence of your godly people.
