Why do you
boast in
evil, O
mighty man? The
lovingkindness of
God endures
all day long.

Your
tongue devises destruction, Like a
sharp razor, O
worker of
deceit.

You
love evil more than good,
Falsehood more than speaking what is
right.

But
God will
break you
down forever; He will
snatch you up and
tear you
away from your
tent, And
uproot you from the
land of the
living.

lovingkindness of
God forever and

I will
give You
thanks forever,
because You have
done it, And I will
wait on Your
name, for it is
good, in the
presence of Your
godly ones.
