Psalmi 52
Biblija: suvremeni hrvatski prijevod
Sud nad silnicima i varalicama
Voditelju zbora. Davidov »maskil«, napisan kad je Edomac Doeg otišao Šaulu i rekao mu: »David je kod Ahimeleka.«
52 Zašto se hvališ zlom, silniče,
što ga činiš protiv pobožnih![a]
2 Protiv drugih smišljaš planove,
jezik ti je oštar kao britva, varalice.
3 Više voliš zlo nego dobro,
draža ti je laž od istine. Selah
4 Voliš riječi klevetničke,
jezik ti je pun prijevare.
5 Ali Bog će te zauvijek skršiti,
zgrabit će te, iz tvog doma istrgnuti,
iz svijeta živih te iskorijeniti. Selah
6 Pravedni će to vidjeti i zgražati se.
Smijat će ti se i govoriti:
7 »Evo silnika koji nije tražio Boga,
nego se uzdao u veliko bogatstvo
i na štetu drugih se osilio.«
8 A ja sam u Božjem Hramu kao zelena maslina,
u Božju vjernu ljubav uzdam se uvijek i zauvijek.
9 Zbog onog što si učinio, Bože,
zauvijek ću ti zahvaljivati.
Pred tvojim vjernima,
tvoje ime i dobrotu ću objavljivati.

Psalm 52
New King James Version
The End of the Wicked and the Peace of the Godly
To the Chief Musician. A [a]Contemplation of David (A)when Doeg the Edomite went and (B)told Saul, and said to him, “David has gone to the house of Ahimelech.”
52 Why do you boast in evil, O mighty man?
The goodness of God endures continually.
2 Your tongue devises destruction,
Like a sharp razor, working deceitfully.
3 You love evil more than good,
Lying rather than speaking righteousness. Selah
4 You love all devouring words,
You deceitful tongue.
5 God shall likewise destroy you forever;
He shall take you away, and pluck you out of your dwelling place,
And uproot you from the land of the living. Selah
6 The righteous also shall see and fear,
And shall laugh at him, saying,
7 “Here is the man who did not make God his strength,
But trusted in the abundance of his riches,
And strengthened himself in his [b]wickedness.”
8 But I am (C)like a green olive tree in the house of God;
I trust in the mercy of God forever and ever.
9 I will praise You forever,
Because You have done it;
And in the presence of Your saints
I will wait on Your name, for it [c]is good.
