Psalm 52:6-8
New Catholic Bible
6 You wallow in destructive talk,
you tongue of deceit.
7 [a]This is the reason why God will crush you
and destroy you once and for all.
He will snatch you from your tent[b]
and uproot you from the land of the living. Selah
8 The righteous will see and be afraid;
they will mock him:
