Psalms 52:1-6
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 52
1Why do you boast in evil, you mighty man? The faithfulness of God endures all day long. 2Your tongue devises destruction, Like a sharp razor, you worker of deceit. 3You love evil more than good, Lies more than speaking what is right. Selah 4You 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 6The righteous will see and fear, And they will laugh at him, saying,King James Version

Chapter 52
1For the director of music. A maskil of David. When Doeg the Edomite had gone to Saul and told him: "David has gone to the house of Ahimelek." Why do you boast of evil, you mighty hero? Why do you boast all day long, you who are a disgrace in the eyes of God? 2You who practice deceit, your tongue plots destruction; it is like a sharpened razor. 3You love evil rather than good, falsehood rather than speaking the truth.New King James Version
