Psalms 52:2-8
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 52
2
Your tongue devises destruction,
Like a sharp razor, you worker of deceit.
3
You love evil more than good,
Lies more than speaking what is right.
Selah
4
You love all words that devour,
You deceitful tongue.
5
But God will break you down forever;
He will snatch you up and tear you away from
your
tent,
And uproot you from the land of the living.
Selah
6
The righteous will see and fear,
And they will laugh at him,
saying,
7
'Behold, the man who would not make God his refuge,
But trusted in the abundance of his riches
And
was strong in his
evil
desire.'
8
But as for me, I am like a green olive tree in the house of God;
I trust in the faithfulness of God forever and ever.
King James Version
Chapter 52
2
Thy tongue deviseth mischiefs; like a sharp razor, working deceitfully.
3
Thou lovest evil more than good; and lying rather than to speak righteousness. Selah.
4
Thou lovest all devouring words, O thou deceitful tongue.
5
God shall likewise destroy thee for ever, he shall take thee away, and pluck thee out of thy dwelling place, and root thee out of the land of the living. Selah.
6
The righteous also shall see, and fear, and shall laugh at him:
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 I am like a green olive tree in the house of God: I trust in the mercy of God for ever and ever.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 52
2
Like a sharpened razor,
your tongue devises destruction,
working treachery.
3
You love evil instead of good,
lying instead of speaking truthfully.
Selah
4
You love any words that destroy,
you treacherous tongue!
5
This is why God will bring you down forever.
He will take you, ripping you out of your tent;
he will uproot you from the land of the living.
Selah
6
The righteous will see and fear,
and they will derisively say about that hero,
7
"Here is the man
who would not make God his refuge,
but trusted in the abundance of his riches,
taking refuge in his destructive behavior."
8
But I am like a flourishing olive tree
in the house of God;
I trust in God’s faithful love forever and ever.
New Living Translation
Chapter 52
2
All day long you plot destruction.
Your tongue cuts like a sharp razor;
you’re an expert at telling lies.
3
You love evil more than good
and lies more than truth.
Interlude
4
You love to destroy others with your words,
you liar!
5
But God will strike you down once and for all.
He will pull you from your home
and uproot you from the land of the living.
Interlude
6
The righteous will see it and be amazed.
They will laugh and say,
7
'Look what happens to mighty warriors
who do not trust in God.
They trust their wealth instead
and grow more and more bold in their wickedness.'
8
But I am like an olive tree, thriving in the house of God.
I will always trust in God’s unfailing love.
English Standard Version

O deceitful tongue.

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!"

But I am like a green olive tree
in the house of God.
I trust in the steadfast love of God

You who practice deceit,
your tongue plots destruction;
it is like a sharpened razor.

You love evil rather than good,
falsehood rather than speaking the truth.
4
You love every harmful word,
you deceitful tongue!

Surely God will bring you down to everlasting ruin:
He will snatch you up and pluck you from your tent;
he will uproot you from the land of the living.

they will laugh at you, saying,
7
"Here now is the man
who did not make God his stronghold
but trusted in his great wealth
and grew strong by destroying others!"

But I am like an olive tree
flourishing in the house of God;
I trust in God’s unfailing love
for ever and ever.
