Chapter 52

1


 

  To the Overseer. -- An instruction, by David, in the coming in of Doeg the Edomite, and he declareth to Saul, and saith to him, 'David came in unto the house of Ahimelech.' What, boasteth thou in evil, O mighty one? The kindness of God [is] all the day.  

 

 

--

2


 

  Mischiefs doth thy tongue devise, Like a sharp razor, working deceit.  

 

 

--

3


 

  Thou hast loved evil rather than good, Lying, than speaking righteousness. Selah.  

 

 

--

4


 

  Thou hast loved all devouring words, O thou deceitful tongue.  

 

 

--

5


 

  Also -- God doth break thee down for ever, Taketh thee, and pulleth thee out of the tent, And He hath uprooted thee Out of the land of the living. Selah.  

 

 

--

6


 

  And the righteous see, And fear, and laugh at him.  

 

 

--

7


 

  'Lo, the man who maketh not God his strong place, And trusteth in the abundance of his riches, He is strong in his mischiefs.'  

 

 

--

8


 

  And I, as a green olive in the house of God, I have trusted in the kindness of God, To the age and for ever,  

 

 

--

9


 

  I thank Thee to the age, because Thou hast done [it], And I wait [on] Thy name for [it is] good before Thy saints!
