Psalm 52

Why do you boast of evil, mighty man?
The steadfast love of God endures all day. Your tongue devises destruction like a sharpened razor, working deceit. You love evil more than good, falsehood more than speaking righteousness. Selah. You love every devouring word, deceitful tongue. But God will tear you down forever;
he will seize you and pull you from your tent, uprooting you from the land of the living. Selah. The righteous will see and fear, and they will laugh at him: “Look at the man who did not make God his stronghold, but trusted in his great riches and grew strong in his evil desire!” But I am like a flourishing olive tree in the house of God;
I trust in the steadfast love of God forever and ever. I will thank you forever, for you have done it;
I will wait for your name, for it is good, in the presence of your faithful ones.
