Why dost thou boast thyself of wickedness, O mighty man? The lovingkindness of GOD, lasteth all the day.

But, I, am like a flourishing olive-tree, in the house of God, I have put confidence in the lovingkindness of God, for times age-abiding and beyond.

I will praise thee to times age-abiding, Because thou didst effectually work, - And I will wait on thy Name, Because it is good, In the presence of thy men of lovingkindness.

Engulfing ruin, doth thy tongue devise, Like a whetted razor, working deceit;

Thou lovest Evil more than good, Falsehood, more than speaking righteousness. Selah.

Lo! the man who made not God his refuge, - But trusted in the abundance of his riches, Emboldened himself in his wealth!

GOD also, will break thee down utterly, He will snatch thee up and tear thee away tentless, And uproot thee, out of the land of the living. Selah.

The righteous shall both see and fear, And, over him, shall laugh:

Thou lovest all devouring words, O deceitful tongue!
