1.0 KiB
I Trust in the Lovingkindness of God
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.
