Psalm 52:3-5
Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

3 You love evil more than good, and lying rather than to speak righteousness, justice, and right. Selah [pause, and calmly think of that]!

4 You love all destroying and devouring words, O deceitful tongue.

5 God will likewise break you down and destroy you forever; He will lay hold of you and pluck you out of your tent and uproot you from the land of the living. Selah [pause, and calmly think of that]!
