Psalms 52

TMB

NIV

1 <<To the chief musician: Maschil. A Psalm of David, when Doeg the Edomite came and told Saul, and said unto him, "David has come to the house of Ahimelech.">> Why boastest thou in thine own mischief, O mighty man? The goodness of God endureth continually.
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 Thy tongue deviseth mischiefs like a sharp razor, working deceitfully.
2 You who practice deceit, your tongue plots destruction; it is like a sharpened razor.
3 Thou lovest evil more than good, and lying rather than speaking righteousness. Selah
3 You love evil rather than good, falsehood rather than speaking the truth.
4 Thou lovest all devouring words, O thou deceitful tongue.
4 You love every harmful word, you deceitful tongue!
5 God shall likewise destroy thee for ever; He shall take thee away, and pluck thee out of thy dwelling place, and root thee out of the land of the living. Selah
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 also shall see this and fear, and shall laugh at him:
6 The righteous will see and fear; they will laugh at you, saying,
7 "Lo, this is the man that made not God his strength, but trusted in the abundance of his riches, and strengthened himself in his own wickedness."
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 a green olive tree in the house of God; I trust in the mercy of God for ever and ever.
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 I will praise Thee for ever, because Thou hast done it, and I will wait on Thy name, for it is good before Thy saints.
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.
