Psalms 52

KING JAMES BIBLE	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 when Doeg the Edomite came and told Saul, and said unto him, David is come to the house of Ahimelech.	1 Unto the end. For Mahalath: the thoughts of David. The fool has said in his heart, “There is no God.”
2 Thy tongue deviseth mischiefs; like a sharp rasor, working deceitfully.	2 They were corrupted, and they became abominable with iniquities. There is no one who does good.
3 Thou lovest evil more than good; and lying rather than to speak righteousness. Selah.	3 God gazed down from heaven on the sons of men, to see if there were any who were considering or seeking God.
4 Thou lovest all devouring words, O thou deceitful tongue.	4 All have gone astray; together they have become useless. There is no one who does good; there is not even one.
5 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.	5 Will they never learn: all those who work iniquity, who devour my people like a meal of bread?
6 The righteous also shall see, and fear, and shall laugh at him:	6 They have not called upon God. In that place, they have trembled in fear, where there was no fear. For God has scattered the bones of those who please men. They have been confounded, because God has spurned them.
7 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.	7 Who will grant from Zion the salvation of Israel? Jacob will exult, when God will convert the captivity of his people; and Israel will rejoice.
8 But I am like a green olive tree in the house of God: I trust in the mercy of God 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.
