Psalm 52:2

God Judges The Proud

¹ Why do you take pride in wrongdoing, lifting yourself up against the upright man all the day? ² Purposing destruction, using deceit; your tongue is like a sharp blade. ³ You have more love for evil than for good, for deceit than for works of righteousness. (Selah.)
