Psalms 52
1 You people [think that you] are strong and brag about the sins that you have committed, while you plan to harm godly people.
Untuk pemimpin kor. Nyanyian pengajaran Daud, ketika Doeg, orang Edom, datang memberitahukan kepada Saul bahwa Daud sudah sampai di rumah Abimelekh. Hai orang kuat, mengapa engkau menyombongkan kejahatanmu terhadap orang yang dikasihi Allah?
2 All during the day you plan to get rid of [others]; what you say [MTY] [injures others] like a sharp razor [SIM], and you are [always] deceiving [others].
Sepanjang hari engkau menipu dan merencanakan yang jahat; lidahmu seperti pisau cukur yang tajam.
3 You like [doing what is] evil more than you like doing what is good, and you like telling lies more than you like telling the truth.
Engkau lebih mencintai kejahatan daripada kebaikan, lebih suka berbohong daripada berkata benar.
4 You who say things [MTY] to deceive people, you like to say (things that hurt people/cruel things)!
Dengan kata-katamu engkau menipu dan menyakiti hati orang!
5 But God will get rid of you forever; he will grab you and drag you from your home and take you away from this world where people are alive.
Tetapi engkau akan dibinasakan Allah untuk selamanya; engkau ditangkap dan diseret dari rumahmu, dan dilenyapkan dari dunia orang hidup.
6 When righteous [people] see that, they will be awestruck, and they will laugh at [what happened to] you, and say,
Melihat itu, orang saleh akan ketakutan, lalu menertawakan engkau dan berkata,
7 “Look [what happened to] the man who would not ask God to protect him; he trusted that his great wealth [would save him]; he trusted in the money that he got by wickedly taking it from others!”
"Itulah orangnya yang tidak berlindung pada Allah, tetapi mengharapkan kekayaannya yang berlimpah dan mencari keamanan pada barang rampasannya."
8 But I am [secure/safe because I worship] in God’s temple; I am like a [strong] green olive tree. I trust in God, who faithfully loves us forever.
Tetapi aku seperti pohon zaitun yang hijau di dalam Rumah Allah. Aku percaya bahwa Allah tetap mengasihi untuk selama-lamanya.
9 God, I will always thank you for the things that you have done. As I stand before godly [people], I will proclaim that you are good (OR, the many good [MTY] [things you have done for us]).
Aku selalu mau bersyukur kepada-Mu di depan umat-Mu kuwartakan kebaikan-Mu.
