Psalms 52
1 For the Leader. Maschil of David;2 when Doeg the Edomite came and told Saul, 3 Why boastest thou thyself of evil, O mighty man? The mercy of God endureth continually.4 Thy tongue deviseth destruction; like a sharp razor, working deceitfully.5 Thou lovest evil more than good; falsehood rather than speaking righteousness. Selah
6 Thou lovest all devouring words, the deceitful tongue.7 God will likewise break thee for ever, 8 The righteous also shall see, and fear, and shall laugh at him:9 'Lo, this is the man that made not God his stronghold;
10 But as for me, I am like a leafy olive-tree in the house of God;
11 I will give Thee thanks for ever, because Thou hast done it; and I will wait for Thy name, for it is good, in the presence of Thy saints.
