Mga Awit 52

1Bakit ka naghahambog sa kasamaan, Oh makapangyarihang tao? Ang kagandahang-loob ng Dios ay palagi. 2Ang dila mo'y kumakatha ng totoong masama; gaya ng matalas na pangahit, na gumagawang may karayaan. 3Iniibig mo ang kasamaan ng higit kay sa kabutihan; at ang pagsisinungaling kay sa pagsasalita ng katuwiran. (Selah) 4Iniibig mo ang lahat na mananakmal na salita, Oh ikaw na magdarayang dila. 5Ilulugmok ka ring gayon ng Dios magpakailan man, itataas ka niya, at ilalabas ka sa iyong tolda, at bubunutin ka niya sa lupain ng may buhay. (Selah) 6Makikita naman ng matuwid, at matatakot, at tatawa sa kaniya, na magsasabi, 7Narito, ito ang tao na hindi ginawang kaniyang katibayan, ang Dios; kundi tumiwala sa kasaganaan ng kaniyang mga kayamanan, at nagpakalakas sa kaniyang kasamaan. 8Nguni't tungkol sa akin, ay gaya ako ng sariwang punong kahoy ng olibo sa bahay ng Dios: tumitiwala ako sa kagandahang-loob ng Dios magpakailan-kailan man. 9Ako'y magpapasalamat sa iyo magpakailan man, sapagka't iyong ginawa: at ako'y maghihintay sa iyong pangalan sapagka't mabuti, sa harapan ng iyong mga banal.

1Why do you boast of mischief, mighty man? God’s loving kindness endures continually. 2Your tongue plots destruction, like a sharp razor, working deceitfully. 3You love evil more than good, lying rather than speaking the truth. Selah. 4You love all devouring words, you deceitful tongue. 5God will likewise destroy you forever. He will take you up, and pluck you out of your tent, and root you out of the land of the living. Selah. 6The righteous also will see it, and fear, and laugh at him, saying, 7“Behold, this is the man who didn’t make God his strength, but trusted in the abundance of his riches, and strengthened himself in his wickedness.” 8But as for me, I am like a green olive tree in God’s house. I trust in God’s loving kindness forever and ever. 9I will give you thanks forever, because you have done it. I will hope in your name, for it is good, in the presence of your saints.

1Een onderwijzing van David, voor den opperzangmeester. 2Als Doeg, de Edomiet, gekomen was, en Saul te kennen gegeven, en tot hem gezegd had: David is gekomen ten huize van Achimelech. 3Wat beroemt gij u in het kwaad, o gij geweldige? Gods goedertierenheid duurt toch den gansen dag. 4Uw tong denkt enkel schade als een geslepen scheermes, werkende bedrog. 5Gij hebt het kwade liever dan het goede, de leugen, dan gerechtigheid te spreken. Sela. 6Gij hebt lief alle woorden van verslinding, en een tong des bedrogs. 7God zal u ook afbreken in eeuwigheid; Hij zal u wegrapen en u uit de tent uitrukken; ja, Hij zal u uitwortelen uit het land der levenden. Sela. 8En de rechtvaardigen zullen het zien, en vrezen; en zij zullen over hem lachen, zeggende: 9Ziet den man, die God niet stelde tot Zijn Sterkte, maar vertrouwde op de veelheid zijns rijkdoms; hij was sterk geworden door zijn beschadigen. Maar ik zal zijn als een groene olijfboom in Gods huis; ik vertrouw op Gods goedertierenheid eeuwiglijk en altoos. ] [ (Psalms 52:11) Ik zal U loven in eeuwigheid, omdat Gij het gedaan hebt; en ik zal Uw Naam verwachten; want hij is goed voor Uw gunstgenoten.
