Psalms 52

victori ab erudito David cum venisset Doec Idumeus et adnuntiasset Saul dicens ei venit David in domum Achimelech quid gloriaris in malitia potens misericordia Dei tota est die

Why boastest thou thyself in mischief, O mighty man? the goodness of God endureth continually.

insidias cogitat lingua tua quasi novacula acuta faciens dolum

Thy tongue deviseth mischiefs; like a sharp razor, working deceitfully.

dilexisti malum magis quam bonum mendacium magis quam loqui iustitiam semper

Thou lovest evil more than good; and lying rather than to speak righteousness. Selah.

dilexisti omnia verba ad devorandum lingua dolosa

Thou lovest all devouring words, O thou deceitful tongue.

sed Deus destruet te in sempiternum terrebit et evellet te de tabernaculo et eradicabit te de terra viventium semper

God shall likewise destroy thee for ever, he shall take thee away, and pluck thee out of thy dwelling place, and root thee out of the land of the living. Selah.

videbunt iusti et timebunt et super eum ridebunt

The righteous also shall see, and fear, and shall laugh at him:

ecce vir qui non posuit Deum fortitudinem suam sed speravit in multitudine divitiarum suarum confortatus est in insidiis suis

Lo, this is the man that made not God his strength; but trusted in the abundance of his riches, and strengthened himself in his wickedness.

ego sicut oliva virens in domo Dei speravi in misericordia Dei in saeculum sempiternum

But I am like a green olive tree in the house of God: I trust in the mercy of God for ever and ever.

confitebor tibi in saeculo quoniam fecisti et expectabo nomen tuum quoniam bonum in conspectu sanctorum tuorum

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.
