Psalm 52

International Standard Version
1
Why do you make evil the foundation of your boasting, mighty one? God's gracious love never ceases.
2
Your tongue, like a sharp razor, devises wicked things and crafts treachery.
3
You love evil rather than good, falsehood rather than speaking uprightly. Interlude
4
You love all words that destroy, you deceitful tongue!
5
But God will tear you down forever; he will take you away, even snatching you out of your tent! He will uproot you from the land of the living. Interlude
6
The righteous will fear when they see this, but then they will laugh at him, saying,
7
"Look, here is a young man who refused to make God his strength; instead, he trusted in his great wealth and made his wickedness his strength.
8
But I am like a green olive tree in the house of God; I trust in the gracious love of God forever and ever.
9
Therefore I will praise you forever because of what you did; I will proclaim that your name is good in the midst of your faithful ones.
