52 Why do you boast of evil, O mighty man?
    The steadfast love of God endures all the day.
² Your ^(B)tongue plots destruction,
    like ^(C)a sharp razor, you ^(D)worker of deceit.
³ You love evil more than good,
    and ^(E)lying more than speaking what is right. Selah
⁴ You love all words that devour,
    O deceitful tongue.
⁵ But God will break you down for ever;
    he will snatch and ^(F)tear you from your tent;
    he will uproot you from ^(G)the land of the living. Selah
⁶ The righteous shall ^(H)see and fear,
    and shall ^(I)laugh at him, saying,
⁷ “See the man who would not make
    God his refuge,
but ^(J)trusted in the abundance of his riches
    and sought refuge in his own destruction!”^[b]
8 But I am like ^(K)a green olive tree
    in the house of God.
I trust in the steadfast love of God
    for ever and ever.
⁹ I will thank you for ever,
    because you have done it.
I will wait for your name, ^(L)for it is good,
    in the presence of the ^(M)godly.
