For the choirmaster. A Maskil of David. After Doeg the Edomite went to Saul and told him, “David has gone to the house of Ahimelech.” Why do you boast of evil, O mighty man? The loving devotion of God endures all day long.

Your tongue devises destruction like a sharpened razor, O worker of deceit.

3 to love: lover bad: evil from good deception from to speak: speak righteousness (Selah)

You love evil more than good, falsehood more than speaking truth.

You love every word that devours, O deceitful tongue.

5 also God to tear you to/for perpetuity to snatch up you and to pull you from tent and to uproot you from land: country/planet alive (Selah)

Surely God will bring you down to everlasting ruin; He will snatch you up and tear you away from your tent; He will uproot you from the land of the living.

The righteous will see and fear; they will mock the evildoer, saying,

7 behold [the] great man not to set: make God security his and to trust in/on/with abundance riches his be strong in/on/with desire his

“Look at the man who did not make God his refuge, but trusted in the abundance of his wealth and strengthened himself by destruction.”

But I am like an olive tree flourishing in the house of God; I trust in the loving devotion of God forever and ever.
