52 Why
boastest thou thyself in mischief, O mighty man? the goodness of God endureth
continually. 2 The
tongue deviseth mischiefs; like a sharp razor, working deceitfully. 3 Thou
lovest evil more than good; and lying rather than to speak righteousness.
Selah. 4 Thou
lovest all devouring words, O thou deceitful tongue.
5
God shall likewise destroy thee for ever, he shall take thee away, and pluck
thee out of thy dwelling place, and root thee out of the land of the living.
Selah. 6 The
righteous also shall see, and fear, and shall laugh at him: 7 Lo,
this is the man that made not God his strength; but trusted in the abundance
of his riches, and strengthened himself in his wickedness. 8 But
I am like a green olive tree in the house of God: I trust in the mercy of
God for ever and ever. 9 I will
praise thee for ever, because thou hast done it: and I will wait on thy
name; for it is good before thy saints.
