2 Whereas the goodness of God: endureth yet daily?
3 Thy tongue imagineth wickedness: and with lies thou cuttest like a sharp rasor.
4 Thou hast loved unrighteousness more than goodness: and to talk of lies more than righteousness.
5 Thou hast loved to speak all words that may do hurt: O thou false tongue.
6 Therefore shall God destroy thee for ever: he shall take thee, and pluck thee out of thy dwelling, and root thee out of the land of the living.
7 The righteous also shall see this, and fear: and shall laugh him to scorn;
8 Lo, this is the man that took not God for his strength: but trusted unto the multitude of his riches, and strengthened himself in his wickedness.
9 As for me, I am like a green olive-tree in the house of God: my trust is in the tender mercy of God for ever and ever.
10 I will always give thanks unto thee for that thou hast done: and I will hope in thy Name, for thy saints like it well.
