###### 1
|
||
|
|
Why do you boast in evil, O mighty man? The lovingkindness of God _endures_ all day long.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 2
|
||
|
|
Your tongue devises destruction, Like a sharp razor, O worker of deceit.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 3
|
||
|
|
You love evil more than good, Falsehood 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 you up and tear you away from _your_ tent, And uproot you from the land of the living, Selah.
|

|
|
|

|
|
###### 6
|

|
|
So that the righteous will see and fear, And will laugh at him, _saying_,
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 7
|

|
|
"Behold, the man who would not set God as his strength, But trusted in the abundance of his riches _And_ was strong in his destruction."
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 8
|
||
|
|
But as for me, I am like a green olive tree in the house of God; I trust in the lovingkindness of God forever and ever.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 9
|

|
|
I will give You thanks forever, because You have done _it_, And I will hope on Your name, for _it is_ good, in the presence of Your holy ones.
