Psalm 52 - Y'all Version Bible

For the Chief Musician. A contemplation by David, when Doeg the Edomite came and told Saul, “David has come to Ahimelech’s house.”

¹ Why do you boast of mischief, mighty man? God’s lovingkindness endures continually.

² Your tongue plots destruction, like a sharp razor, working deceitfully.

³ You love evil more than good, lying rather than speaking the truth. Selah.

⁴ You love all devouring words, you deceitful tongue.

⁵ God will likewise destroy you forever. Hᴇ will take you up, and pluck you out of your tent, and root you out of the land of the living. Selah.

⁶ The righteous also will see it, and fear, and laugh at him, saying,

⁷ “Here is the man who didn’t make God his strength, but trusted in the abundance of his riches, and strengthened himself in his wickedness.”

⁸ But as for me, I am like a green olive tree in God’s house. I trust in God’s lovingkindness forever and ever.

⁹ I will give you thanks forever, because you have done it. I will hope in your name, for it is good, in the presence of your saints.
