Psalms 52

To the director; for contemplation; to David, in the coming of Doeg the Edomite, and announcing to Saul, and telling to him that David went to the house of Ahimelech.

52:1Why do you boast in evil, O mighty man, with lawlessness the entire day?

52:2Your tongue considers injustice; as sharpening a razor you did treachery.

52:3You loved evil over goodness; injustice over speaking righteousness.

52:4You loved all the drowning words, O deceitful tongue.

52:5On account of this, God shall demolish you unto the end, to pluck you out, and to migrate you from your tent, and your root from out of the land of the living.

52:6The just shall see and shall fear, and shall laugh at him. And they shall say,

52:7Behold, the man who did not make God his helper, but raised hope upon the multitude of his riches, and was strengthened by his folly.

52:8But I am as a fruitful olive tree in the house of God. I hoped upon the mercy of God into the eon, and into the eon of the eon.

52:9I will make acknowledgment to you into the eon, for you acted; and I will wait on your name, for you are gracious before your sacred ones.
