Psalms 52

The Steadfast Love of God Endures

To the choirmaster. A Maskila of David, when Doeg, the Edomite, came and told Saul, “David has come to the house of Ahimelech.”

Why do you boast of evil, O mighty man?
The steadfast love of God endures all the day.

The End of the Wicked and the Peace of the Godly

To the Chief Musician. A [a]Contemplation of David when Doeg the Edomite went and told Saul, and said to him, “David has gone to the house of Ahimelech.”

Why do you boast in evil, O mighty man?
The goodness of God endures continually.

Your tongue plots destruction,
like a sharp razor, you worker of deceit.

Your tongue devises destruction,
Like a sharp razor, working deceitfully.

You love evil more than good,
and lying more than speaking what is right. Selah

You love evil more than good,
Lying rather than speaking righteousness. Selah

You love all words that devour,
O deceitful tongue.

You love all devouring words,
You deceitful tongue.

But God will break you down forever;
he will snatch and tear you from your tent;
he will uproot you from the land of the living. Selah

God shall likewise destroy you forever;
He shall take you away, and pluck you out of your dwelling place,
And uproot you from the land of the living. Selah

The righteous shall see and fear,
and shall laugh at him, saying,

The righteous also shall see and fear,
And shall laugh at him, saying,

“See the man who would not make
God his refuge,
but trusted in the abundance of his riches
and sought refuge in his own destruction!”b

“Here is the man who did not make God his strength,
But trusted in the abundance of his riches,
And strengthened himself in his [b]wickedness.”

But I am like a green olive tree
in the house of God.
I trust in the steadfast love of God
forever and ever.

But I am like a green olive tree in the house of God;
I trust in the mercy of God forever and ever.

I will thank you forever,
because you have done it.
I will wait for your name, for it is good,
in the presence of the godly.

I will praise You forever,
Because You have done it;
And in the presence of Your saints
I will wait on Your name, for it [c]is good.
