Psalms:52
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Why do you boast in evil ,
O mighty man ?
The goodness of God endures continually .
*
Your tongue devises destruction ,
Like a sharp razor ,
working deceitfully .
*
You love evil more than good ,
Lying rather than speaking righteousness .
Selah
*
You love all devouring words ,
You deceitful tongue .
*
God shall likewise destroy you forever ;
He shall take you away ,
and pluck you out of your dwelling place ,
And uproot you from the land of the living .
Selah
*
The righteous also shall see and fear ,
And shall laugh at him ,
saying ,
* "
Here is the man who did not make God his strength ,
But trusted in the abundance of his riches ,
And strengthened himself in his wickedness ."
*
But I am like a green olive tree in the house of God ;
I trust in the mercy of God forever and ever .
*
I will praise You forever ,
Because You have done it ;
And in the presence of Your saints I will wait on Your name ,
for it is good .
