1 To the chief music-maker. Maschil. Of David.\

2 \52:1\When Doeg the Edomite came to Saul saying, David has come to the house of Ahimelech.

3 \52:1\Why do you take pride in wrongdoing, lifting yourself up against the upright man all the day?

4 \52:2\Purposing destruction, using deceit; your tongue is like a sharp blade.

5 \52:3\You have more love for evil than for good, for deceit than for works of righteousness. (Selah.)

6 \52:4\Destruction is in all your words, O false tongue.

7 \52:5\But God will put an end to you for ever; driving you out from your tent, uprooting you from the land of the living. (Selah.)

8 \52:6\The upright will see it with fear, and will say, laughing at you:

9 \52:7\See, this is the man who did not make God his strength, but had faith in his goods and his property, and made himself strong in his wealth.

10 \52:8\But I am like a branching olive-tree in the house of God; I have put my faith in his mercy for ever and ever.

11 \52:9\I will give you praise without end for what you have done; I will give honour to your name before your saints, for it is good.

1 勇士啊！ 你为什么以作恶自夸呢？ 神的慈爱是常存的。

2 你图谋毁灭， 你的舌头锋利像剃刀， 常弄诡诈。

3 你喜爱作恶过于行善， 喜爱撒谎过于说实话。（细拉）

4 你喜爱你诡诈的舌头， 所说一切毁灭人的话。

5 神必把你永远拆毁； 他必把你挪去， 把你从帐棚中揪出来， 把你从活人之地连根拔起。（细拉）

6 义人必看见而惧怕； 他们必讥笑他， 说：

7 "看哪！ 这就是那不以 神为自己保障的人， 他只倚靠自己丰盛的财富， 以毁灭别人来加强自己的力量。"

8 至于我， 我就像 神殿中茂盛的橄榄树一样； 我倚靠 神的慈爱， 直到永永远远。

9 我要永远称谢你， 因为你行了这事； 我必在你圣民的面前， 宣扬（"宣扬"原文作"仰望"）你的名， 因你的名是美好的。
