←Prev   Psalms 52 as rendered by/in  Next→ 


52:1  For the music director: a contemplative song of David,
52:2  when Doeg the Edomite came and reported to Saul telling him, “David went to Ahimelech’s house.”
52:3  Why do you brag about evil, mighty man? God’s lovingkindness is every day.
52:4  Your tongue plots destruction, like a sharp razor, working deceit.
52:5  You love evil instead of good, lying rather than speaking right. Selah
52:6  You love only devouring words— treacherous tongue!
52:7  God will pull you down forever, and snatch you, rip you out of your tent, and uproot you from the land of the living. Selah
52:8  Then the righteous will see and fear, and laugh at him:
52:9  “Here is the man who did not make God his stronghold. Instead he trusted in his great riches— and was strong in his evil desire.”
