嘆惡人狂妄自誇

52 以東多益來告訴掃羅說:「大衛到了亞希米勒家。」那時,大衛作這訓誨詩,交於伶長。

勇士啊,你為何以作惡自誇?神的慈愛是常存的。
你的舌頭邪惡詭詐,好像剃頭刀,快利傷人。
你愛惡勝似愛善,又愛說謊,不愛說公義。(細拉)
詭詐的舌頭啊,你愛說一切毀滅的話!
神也要毀滅你,直到永遠。他要把你拿去,從你的帳篷中抽出,從活人之地將你拔出。(細拉)
義人要看見而懼怕,並要笑他,
說:「看哪!這就是那不以神為他力量的人,只倚仗他豐富的財物,在邪惡上堅立自己。」
至於我,就像神殿中的青橄欖樹,我永永遠遠倚靠神的慈愛。
我要稱謝你,直到永遠,因為你行了這事。我也要在你聖民面前仰望你的名,這名本為美好。

上帝的审判和慈爱

以东人多益去告诉扫罗:“大卫到了亚希米勒家。”那时大卫作了这首训诲诗,交给乐长。

52 勇士啊,你为何以作恶为荣?
上帝的慈爱永远长存。
你这诡诈的人啊,
舌头利如剃刀,
尽是害人的奸计。
你喜爱邪恶,不爱良善;
你喜爱虚谎,不爱真理。(细拉)
你有诡诈的舌头,
好说恶言恶语。
上帝必永远毁灭你,
祂必抓住你,
把你从家里拉出来,
从活人之地铲除。(细拉)
义人看见必心生敬畏,
他们必嘲笑说:
“看啊,这就是不依靠上帝的人,
他只倚仗自己的财富和以残暴手段获得的权势。”
我就像上帝殿中的一棵橄榄树,枝繁叶茂,
我永永远远信靠上帝的慈爱。
上帝啊,
我要永远赞美你的作为。
我要在你忠心的子民面前仰望你美善的名。

Psalm 52[a]

For the director of music. A maskil[b] of David. When Doeg the Edomite(A) had gone to Saul and told him: “David has gone to the house of Ahimelek.”

Why do you boast of evil, you mighty hero?
    Why do you boast(B) all day long,(C)
    you who are a disgrace in the eyes of God?
You who practice deceit,(D)
    your tongue plots destruction;(E)
    it is like a sharpened razor.(F)
You love evil(G) rather than good,
    falsehood(H) rather than speaking the truth.[c]
You love every harmful word,
    you deceitful tongue!(I)

Surely God will bring you down to everlasting ruin:
    He will snatch you up and pluck(J) you from your tent;
    he will uproot(K) you from the land of the living.(L)
The righteous will see and fear;
    they will laugh(M) at you, saying,
“Here now is the man
    who did not make God his stronghold(N)
but trusted in his great wealth(O)
    and grew strong by destroying others!”

But I am like an olive tree(P)
    flourishing in the house of God;
I trust(Q) in God’s unfailing love
    for ever and ever.
For what you have done I will always praise you(R)
    in the presence of your faithful people.(S)
And I will hope in your name,(T)
    for your name is good.(U)
