Psalm 52:1-9 (English Standard Version)
View In My BibleThe Steadfast Love of God Endures
1 Why do you boast of evil, O mighty man? The steadfast love of God endures all the day. 2 Your 1tongue plots destruction, like 2a sharp razor, you 3worker of deceit. 3 You love evil more than good, and 4lying more than speaking what is right. Selah 4 You love all words that devour, O deceitful tongue. 5 But God will break you down forever; he will snatch and 5tear you from your tent; he will uproot you from 6the land of the living. Selah 6 The righteous shall 7see and fear, and shall 8laugh at him, saying, 7 "See the man who would not make God his refuge, but 9trusted in the abundance of his riches and sought refuge in his own destruction!"a 8 But I am like 10a green olive tree in the house of God. I trust in the steadfast love of God forever and ever. 9 I will thank you forever, because you have done it. I will wait for your name, 11for it is good, in the presence of the 12godly.The English Standard Version is published with the permission of Good News Publishers.
