1 To the chief Musician, H5329 Maschil, H4905 A Psalm of David, H1732 when Doeg H1673 the Edomite H130 came H935 and told H5046 Saul, H7586 and said H559 unto him, David H1732 is come H935 to H413 the house H1004 of Ahimelech. H288 Why H4100 boastest thou thyself H1984 in mischief, H7451 O mighty man H1368 ? the goodness H2617 of God H410 endureth continually H3605 H3117 .
2 Thy tongue H3956 deviseth H2803 mischiefs; H1942 like a sharp H3913 razor, H8593 working H6213 deceitfully. H7423
3 Thou lovest H157 evil H7451 more than good H4480 H2896 ; and lying H8267 rather than to speak H4480 H1696 righteousness. H6664 Selah. H5542
4 Thou lovest H157 all H3605 devouring H1105 words, H1697 O thou deceitful H4820 tongue. H3956
5 God H410 shall likewise H1571 destroy H5422 thee forever, H5331 he shall take thee away, H2846 and pluck thee out H5255 of thy dwelling place H4480 H168 , and root H8327 thee out of the land H4480 H776 of the living. H2416 Selah. H5542
6 The righteous H6662 also shall see, H7200 and fear, H3372 and shall laugh H7832 at H5921 him:
7 Lo H2009 , this is the man H1397 that made H7760 not H3808 God H430 his strength; H4581 but trusted H982 in the abundance H7230 of his riches, H6239 and strengthened H5810 himself in his wickedness. H1942
8 But I H589 am like a green H7488 olive tree H2132 in the house H1004 of God: H430 I trust H982 in the mercy H2617 of God H430 forever H5769 and ever. H5703
9 I will praise H3034 thee forever, H5769 because H3588 thou hast done H6213 it : and I will wait on H6960 thy name; H8034 for H3588 it is good H2896 before H5048 thy saints. H2623
