For the Chief Musician. Maschil
of David; when Doeg the Edomite
came and told Saul, and said unto him, David is come to the
house of Abimelech.
1
Why boastest thou thyself in
mischief, O mighty man?
The lovingkindness of God [endureth] continually.
2
Thy tongue deviseth very
wickedness,
Like a sharp razor, working deceitfully.
3
Thou lovest evil more than
good,
And lying rather than to speak righteousness.
4 Thou
lovest all devouring words,
thou deceitful tongue.
5
God will likewise destroy
thee for ever;
He will take thee up, and pluck thee out of thy tent,
And root thee out of the land of the living.
6 The
righteous also shall see [it], and fear,
And shall laugh at him, [saying],
7
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.
8
But as for me, I am like a
green olive-tree in the house
of God:
I trust in the lovingkindness of God for ever and ever.
9
I will give thee thanks for
ever, because thou hast done
it;
And I will hope in thy name, for it is good, in the presence of
thy saints.
