Psalms

以东人多益来告诉扫罗说：「大卫到了亚希米勒家。」那时，大卫作这训诲诗，交与伶长。

1勇士啊，你为何以作恶自夸？ 神的慈爱是常存的。

2你的舌头邪恶诡诈， 好像剃头刀，快利伤人。

3你爱恶胜似爱善， 又爱说谎，不爱说公义。 （细拉）

4诡诈的舌头啊， 你爱说一切毁灭的话！

5神也要毁灭你，直到永远； 他要把你拿去，从你的帐棚中抽出， 从活人之地将你拔出。 （细拉）

6义人要看见而惧怕， 并要笑他，

7说：看哪，这就是那不以 神为他力量的人， 只倚仗他丰富的财物，在邪恶上坚立自己。

8至于我，就像 神殿中的青橄榄树； 我永永远远倚靠 神的慈爱。

9我要称谢你，直到永远， 因为你行了这事。 我也要在你圣民面前仰望你的名； 这名本为美好。

For the choirmaster. A Maskil of David. After Doeg the Edomite went to Saul and told him, “David has gone to the house of Ahimelech.”

1Why do you boast of evil, O mighty man?The loving devotion of God endures all day long.

2Your tongue devises destructionlike a sharpened razor, O worker of deceit.

3You love evil more than good,falsehood more than speaking truth.Selah

4You love every word that devours,O deceitful tongue.

5Surely God will bring you down to everlasting ruin;He will snatch you up and tear you away from your tent; He will uproot you from the land of the living.Selah

6The righteous will see and fear;they will mock the evildoer, saying,

7“Look at the manwho did not make God his refuge,but trusted in the abundance of his wealthand strengthened himself by destruction.”

8But I am like an olive treeflourishing in the house of God;I trust in the loving devotion of Godforever and ever.

9I will praise You forever,because You have done it.I will wait on Your name—for it is good— in the presence of Your saints.
