Psalm 52:2-4
New Catholic Bible
2 When Doeg the Edomite went and told Saul, “David has gone to the house of Ahimelech.”
3 Why do you boast of your evil deeds,
you champion of malice?[a]
All day long 4 you plot harm;
your tongue is like a sharpened razor,
you master of deceit.
Footnotes
- Psalm 52:3 You champion of malice: the translation follows the Greek. The Hebrew has: “the kindness of God lasts all day long.” The title is one of scorn; he is a champion only in his own mind, and God can easily put him in his place (see Isa 22:17).
