Text: Psalm 52

Psalm 52

To the choirmaster. A Maskil of David, when Doeg, the Edomite, came and told Saul, “David has come to the house of Ahimelech.”

[1] Why do you boast of evil, O mighty man?

The steadfast love of God endures all the day.

[2] Your tongue plots destruction,

like a sharp razor, you worker of deceit.

[3] You love evil more than good,

and lying more than speaking what is right. Selah

[4] You love all words that devour,

O deceitful tongue.

[5] But God will break you down forever;

he will snatch and tear you from your tent;

he will uproot you from the land of the living. Selah

[6] The righteous shall see and fear,

and shall laugh at him, saying,

[7] “See the man who would not make

God his refuge,

but trusted in the abundance of his riches

and sought refuge in his own destruction!”

[8] But I am like a green olive tree

in the house of God.

I trust in the steadfast love of God

forever and ever.

[9] I will thank you forever,

because you have done it.

I will wait for your name, for it is good,

in the presence of the godly. (ESV)
