Psalms 52
52
For the Music Director. A Contemplative Maskil. A Psalm of David, when Doeg the Edomite came and told Saul, “David has come to the house of Ahimelek.”
1Why do you boast in evil, O mighty man?
The goodness of God endures continually.
2#Ps 63:1; 84:2 Your tongue devises calamities,
like a sharp razor, you worker of treachery.
3#Ps 79:10; 80:5 You love evil more than good,
and lying rather than speaking righteousness. Selah
4#Isa 30:29; Ps 62:8 You love all devouring words,
O you deceitful tongue.
5#Ps 42:11; 43:5 God will likewise break you down forever;
He will snatch you away and pluck you from your home,
and uproot you from the land of the living. Selah
6#2Sa 17:22; Dt 3:8–9 The righteous also will see and fear,
and will laugh in contempt,
7#Ps 88:7; Jnh 2:3 “See, this is the man
who did not make God his refuge,
but trusted in the abundance of riches,
and grew strong in his own wickedness.”
8#Job 35:10; Ps 63:6 But I am like a green olive tree
in the house of God;
I trust in the mercy of God
forever and ever.
9#Ps 38:6; 18:2 I will give thanks to You forever, because You have acted;
and I will wait on Your name,
for it is good before Your saints.
