Psalms:52
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Why boast you yourself in mischief ,
O mighty man ?
the goodness of God endures continually .
*
The tongue devises evil ;
like a sharp razor ,
working deceitfully .
*
You love evil more than good ;
and lying rather than to speak righteousness .
Selah .
*
You love all devouring words ,
O you deceitful tongue .
*
God shall likewise destroy you for ever ,
he shall take you away ,
and pluck you out of your dwelling place ,
and root you out of the land of the living .
Selah .
*
The righteous also shall see ,
and fear ,
and shall laugh at him :
*
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 .
*
But I am like a green olive tree in the house of God :
I trust in the mercy of God for ever and ever .
*
I will praise you for ever ,
because you have done it :
and I will wait on your name ;
for it is good before your saints .
