Psalm 52:3

Listen to Psalm 52:3
3 Amaste el mal más que el bien; la mentira más que hablar justicia. (Selah.)

Psalm 52:3 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 52:3

Thou lovest evil more than good
Indeed not good at all; such comparatives being strong negatives; see ( Psalms 118:8 Psalms 118:9 ) ; a wicked man loves evil, and nothing else; his carnal mind being enmity to all that is good

[and] lying rather than to speak righteousness;
as appears by his affirming that Ahimelech inquired of the Lord for David, when he did not, ( 1 Samuel 22:10 1 Samuel 22:15 ) ; and by suffering some things to pass for truths which were falsehoods, when it lay in his power to have disproved them: and such a lover of lies is antichrist; see ( 1 Timothy 4:2 ) ( 2 Thessalonians 2:11 ) .

Selah; on this word, (See Gill on Psalms 3:2). The Targum renders the word "Selah" here "for ever", as in ( Psalms 52:5 ) .

Psalm 52:3 In-Context

1 Al Vencedor: Masquil de David, cuando vino Doeg el edomita y dio cuenta a Saúl, diciéndole: David ha venido a casa de Ahimelec. ¿Por qué te glorías de maldad, oh ilustre? La misericordia de Dios es cada día.
2 Agravios maquina tu lengua; como navaja amolada hace engaño.
3 Amaste el mal más que el bien; la mentira más que hablar justicia. (Selah.)
4 Has amado toda suerte de palabras perniciosas, engañosa lengua.
5 Por tanto Dios te derribará para siempre; te cortará y te arrancará de tu morada, y te desarraigará de la tierra de los vivientes. (Selah.)
