Psalm 52

The Complete Jewish Bible CJB

1 For the leader. A maskil of David, when Do'eg from Edom came and told Sha'ul, "David has arrived at the house of Achimelekh": Why do you boast of your evil, you tyrant, when God's mercy is present every day?

2 Your tongue, as sharp as a razor, plots destruction and works deception.

3 You love evil more than good, lies rather than speaking uprightly. (Selah)

4 You love all words that eat people up, you deceitful tongue!

5 This is why God will strike you down, seize you, pluck you from your tent and uproot you from the land of the living. (Selah)

6 The righteous will see and be awestruck; they will jeer at him, saying,

7 "This fellow would not make God his refuge, but trusted in his own great wealth, relying on his evil plots."

8 But I am like a leafy olive tree in the house of God; I put my trust in the grace of God forever and ever.

9 I will praise you forever for what you have done, and I will put my hope in your name; for this is what is good in the presence of your faithful.

King James Version KJV

1 Why boastest thou thyself in mischief, O mighty man? the goodness of God endureth continually.

2 Thy tongue deviseth mischiefs; like a sharp razor, working deceitfully.

3 Thou lovest evil more than good; and lying rather than to speak righteousness. Selah.

4 Thou lovest all devouring words, O thou 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.

6 The righteous also shall see, and fear, and shall laugh at him:

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 wickedness.

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.

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.
