Psalms 52

New Century Version NCV

1 Mighty warrior, why do you brag about the evil you do? God's love will continue forever.

2 You think up evil plans. Your tongue is like a sharp razor, making up lies.

3 You love wrong more than right and lies more than truth.Selah

4 You love words that bite and tongues that lie.

5 But God will ruin you forever. He will grab you and throw you out of your tent; he will tear you away from the land of the living.Selah

6 Those who do right will see this and fear God. They will laugh at you and say,

7 "Look what happened to the man who did not depend on God but depended on his money. He grew strong by his evil plans."

8 But I am like an olive tree growing in God's Temple. forever and ever.

9 God, I will thank you forever for what you have done. With those who worship you, I will trust you because you are good.

New International Version NIV

1 Why do you boast of evil, you mighty hero? Why do you boast all day long, you who are a disgrace in the eyes of God?

2 You who practice deceit, your tongue plots destruction; it is like a sharpened razor.

3 You love evil rather than good, falsehood rather than speaking the truth.

4 You love every harmful word, you deceitful tongue!

5 Surely God will bring you down to everlasting ruin: He will snatch you up and pluck you from your tent; he will uproot you from the land of the living.

6 The righteous will see and fear; they will laugh at you, saying,

7 “Here now is the man who did not make God his stronghold but trusted in his great wealth and grew strong by destroying others!”

8 But I am like an olive tree flourishing in the house of God; I trust in God’s unfailing love for ever and ever.

9 For what you have done I will always praise you in the presence of your faithful people. And I will hope in your name, for your name is good.
