Why do you boast in anger, more strongly? Lawlessness all day long. Your tongue has plotted lies, as if you had created a cunning razor for flattery. Thou hast loved malice more than kindness, to speak falsehood rather than to speak truth. Thou hast loved all the words of the flood, and the tongue is flattering. For this reason God will destroy you completely, will make you rapture, and will remove you from your village and your root from the land of the living. They will see righteousness and fear, and they will laugh at him and say: Behold the man who did not make God his helper, but trusted in the abundance of his riches, and in the strength of his vanity. And like the olive tree that bears fruit in the house of God, I trust in the mercy of God forever and ever. I will confess to You forever, as You have created, and I endure Your name, for it is good before Your saints. Why do you boast about your villainy, O mighty one? You create lawlessness every day. Your tongue has told lies; Your lies have become like a razor sharp. You loved evil more than good, untruth more than truthful speech; You have loved destructive words, a lying tongue.
Therefore God will completely crush you, take you and remove you from your dwelling, and uproot your root from the land of the living. The righteous will see this and be afraid, they will laugh at you and say: “Here is a man who did not seek help from God, but trusted in his great wealth, and became rigid in his vanity.” And I am like a fruitful olive tree in the house of God; I trust in the mercy of God forever. I will glorify You forever for everything that You have created, and I trust in Your name, for it is good for Your righteous.
Psalm 52
Finally, about maleph, the mind of David.
In the end, on maleleth, in the teaching of David, 52.
The speech is foolish in his heart: there is no God, corrupted and disgusted by lawlessness, who does not do good. God from heaven comes down to the sons of men, see, is there anyone who understands or seeks God? Having all deviated, you did not need everything together, you did not do good, you did not do it to one. Will all those who practice iniquity, who eat my bread for food, understand that they have not called upon the Lord? There you were afraid of fear, even though there was no fear, for God had scattered the bones of people-pleasers: you were ashamed, for God had humiliated them. Who will give salvation to Israel from Zion? Whenever God brings back the captivity of His people, Jacob will rejoice and Israel will rejoice. The madman said in his heart: “There is no God.” They became corrupt and became vile in their iniquities; there are none who do good. God bowed down from Heaven to the sons of men, so that he might see whether there is one who knows or seeks God. Everyone has deviated from the truth, everyone has become obscene; there is no one who does good, not even one. Will not the workers of iniquity, who eat my people as they eat bread, come to their senses? They did not call on the Lord!
They were afraid when there was no fear, for God scattered the bones of the flatterers; they are put to shame, for God has humiliated them. Who will grant salvation to Israel from the heights of Zion? When God brings His people back from captivity, Jacob will rejoice, Israel will rejoice.
Psalm 53
Finally, in the songs of the mind, David came to Ziphe, and said to Saul: Has David not sat down and hid himself in us?
God, in Your name save me, and in Your power judge me. God, hear my prayer, inspire the words of my mouth. As strangers rose up against me and sought my soul with strength, and did not offer God before them. Behold, God helps me, and the Lord is the protector of my soul. Turn away the evil from my enemies; consume them with Your truth. I will devour You, I will confess to Your name, Lord, that it is good that You have delivered me from all sorrow, and that my eye has looked upon my enemies.
In the end, the song of David, for teaching; When Ziph came and said to Saul, “Isn’t this David hiding among us?”
God, save me in Your name and judge me by Your power! God, hear my prayer, listen to the words of my mouth, For strangers have risen up against me, and the mighty seek my death, and do not have God before them. But God helps me, the Lord is the Protector of my soul; He will turn evil on my enemies. By the power of Your truth destroy them! Of my own free will I will sacrifice to You, I will glorify Your name, Lord, for it is good; For You delivered me from all sorrow, and my eye looked upon the destruction of my enemies.
Psalm 54
Finally, in the songs of the mind of Asaph, a psalm.
In the end, song, in teaching, Asaph, 54.
Inspire, O God, my prayer and do not despise my prayer. Listen to me and hear me: I was grieved by my sadness and was confused. From the voice of the enemy and from the oppression of the sinner, who turned away iniquity against me and in anger enmity me. My heart is in turmoil and the fear of death attacks me. Fear and trembling came upon me and darkness covered me. And he said: who will give me a krill like a dove? And I’ll fly and rest? He went away in flight and settled in the desert. I hope for God, who saves me from cowardice and from storms. Flood, O Lord, and divide their tongues: for you have seen lawlessness and strife in the city. Day and night he will walk along its walls. Lawlessness and labor are in the midst of it and untruth. And his wealth and flattery did not become scarce. As if if the enemy had reviled me, I would have suffered slaughter, and if the one who hated me had spoken against me, I would have hidden myself from him. But you, an indifferent man, are my master and my friend, who so much enjoyed being with me, walking in the house of God with like-mindedness.
May death come upon her, and may they descend into hell and live, for wickedness is in their dwellings, in the midst of them. I cried to God, and the Lord heard me. Evening and morning and noon I will tell, and I will proclaim, and he will hear my voice. He will deliver my soul in peace from those who approach me, for they have fought with me in many troubles. God will hear and humble me, who was before the age. For they will not change, as if they did not fear God. Stretch out your hand for retribution, profaning His covenant. His face was divided from the wrath, and their hearts drew near, and their words were quenched more than oil, which are arrows. Cast your sorrow upon the Lord, and He will feed you, and will not give the reputation of the righteous forever. But you, God, have brought them down into the state of decay; men of blood and flattery will not spend half their days. But, Lord, I trust in You. Hear, O God, my prayer and do not reject my prayer; Listen to me and hear me! I grieved in my grief and fell into confusion from the threats of enemies and the oppression of sinners; for they accused me of iniquity and were at enmity with me in rage.
My heart was in confusion, and the fear of death attacked me; Fear and trembling fell upon me, and darkness covered me. And I said: “Who will give me the wings of a dove, so that I can fly away and calm down?” So I left, fled and settled in the desert. I waited for God to save me from cowardice and from the storm. Destroy my enemies, O Lord, and bring discord into their speech, for I see lawlessness and strife in the city. Day and night there is strife on the walls around him; iniquity and sorrow in the midst of it and unrighteousness; And his covetousness and deception did not dry up in the squares. If the enemy reviled me, I would endure; and if my hater had extolled himself over me, I would have hidden from him. But you are also with them, a man of one mind, my mentor and my close one, you who enjoyed the dishes with me, who went to the house of God with me in one mind! May death befall them, may they go down to hell alive, for wickedness is in their dwellings, in their midst! I cried out to God, and the Lord heard me. In the evening, and in the morning, and at noon, I will tell and tell God my sorrow, and He will hear my voice. With His peace He will deliver my soul from the enemies approaching me, for I have many of them.
God will hear me, He who existed before the ages will punish them, for there is no change in them, they did not fear God. He stretched out His hand for retribution: they broke His covenant. They were scattered from His anger, but their hearts were drawn closer; Their words have become softer than oil, but they wound like arrows. Cast your sorrow on the Lord, and He will nourish you; will never bring the righteous into confusion. But You, O God, will cast them into the well of destruction; men who shed blood and the wicked will not live to see half their days. And I, Lord, trust in You.
Glory to the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.
