Chapter 52
(NASB)
Psalms 52
Ready to read
1
[416][417] Why do you boast in evil, you mighty man? The faithfulness of God endures all day long.
2
Your tongue devises destruction, Like a sharp razor, you worker of deceit.
3
You love evil more than good, Lies more than speaking what is right. Selah
4
You love all words that devour, You deceitful tongue.
5
[418]But God will break you down forever; He will snatch you up and tear you away from your tent, And uproot you from the land of the living. Selah
6
The righteous will see and fear, And they will laugh at him, saying,
7
“Behold, the man who would not make God his refuge, But trusted in the abundance of his riches And was strong in [419]his evil desire.”
8
But as for me, I am like a green olive tree in the house of God; I trust in the faithfulness of God forever and ever.
9
I will praise You forever, because You have done it, And I will wait on Your name, for it is good, in the presence of Your godly ones.
