Psalm 52:6-8
New International Version

6 The righteous will see and fear;
    they will laugh(A) at you, saying,
7 “Here now is the man
    who did not make God his stronghold(B)
but trusted in his great wealth(C)
    and grew strong by destroying others!”

8 But I am like an olive tree(D)
    flourishing in the house of God;
I trust(E) in God’s unfailing love
    for ever and ever.
