Psalms, psalm 52

man? the goodness of JAH endureth continually.
2: Thy tongue deviseth mischiefs; like a sharp rasor, working deceitfully.
3: Thou lovest evil more than good; and lying rather than to speak
righteousness. Selah.

and pluck thee out of thy dwelling place, and root thee out of the land
of the living. Selah.

7: Lo, this is the man that made not JAH his strength; but trusted
in the abundance of his riches, and strengthened himself in his wickedness.
8: But I am like a green olive tree in the house of JAH: I trust in
the mercy of JAH for ever and ever.
9: I will praise thee for ever, because thou hast done it: and I will
wait on thy name; for it is good before thy saints.
