Psalms

Chapter 52
1
Phonetic (Hebrew): lamenatzּe֗cha mashsekּi֥yl ledaviֽd׃
Edified Edition (EDE)Why do you boast of mischief, O mighty man? The goodness of God endures continually.

לַמְנַצֵּ֗חַ מַשְׂכִּ֥יל לְדָוִֽד׃

2
Phonetic (Hebrew): bּeb֤o ׀ dּo'e֣g ha'adomiy֮ vayּagּe֪d leshsha֫'֥ul vayּo֥'mer l֑o bּa֥ da֝vi֗d 'el-bּe֥yt 'achiymeֽleke׃
Edified Edition (EDE)Your tongue plots destruction; it is like a sharp razor, working deceitfully.

בְּב֤וֹא ׀ דּוֹאֵ֣ג הָאֲדֹמִי֮ וַיַּגֵּ֪ד לְשָׁ֫א֥וּל וַיֹּ֥אמֶר ל֑וֹ בָּ֥א דָ֝וִ֗ד אֶל־בֵּ֥ית אֲחִימֶֽלֶךְ׃

3
Phonetic (Hebrew): mah-tּitehalּe֣l bּe֭ra'ah hagּibּ֑or che֥sed 'e֝֗l kּal-hayּֽom׃
Edified Edition (EDE)You love evil more than good, and lying rather than to speak righteousness. Selah.

מַה־תִּתְהַלֵּ֣ל בְּ֭רָעָה הַגִּבּ֑וֹר חֶ֥סֶד אֵ֝֗ל כָּל־הַיּֽוֹם׃

4
Phonetic (Hebrew): ha֭uot tּacheshsho֣b leshshone֑ka kּeta֥'ar me֝lutּa֗shsh 'oshse֥h remiyּaֽh׃
Edified Edition (EDE)You love all devouring words, O you deceitful tongue.

הַ֭וּוֹת תַּחְשֹׁ֣ב לְשׁוֹנֶ֑ךָ כְּתַ֥עַר מְ֝לֻטָּ֗שׁ עֹשֵׂ֥ה רְמִיָּֽה׃

5
Phonetic (Hebrew): aha֣betּa rּa֣ mitּ֑ob shshe֓qer ׀ midּabּe֖r tze֣deq seֽlah׃
Edified Edition (EDE)God shall likewise destroy you for ever; he shall take you away and pluck you out of your dwelling place, and root you out of the land of the living. Selah.

אָהַ֣בְתָּ רָּ֣ע מִטּ֑וֹב שֶׁ֓קֶר ׀ מִדַּבֵּ֖ר צֶ֣דֶק סֶֽלָה׃

6
Phonetic (Hebrew): aha֥betּa kaֽl-dּiberey-ba֗la leshsh֣on miremaֽh׃
Edified Edition (EDE)The righteous also shall see and fear, and shall laugh at him, saying,

אָהַ֥בְתָּ כָֽל־דִּבְרֵי־בָ֗לַע לְשׁ֣וֹן מִרְמָֽה׃

7
Phonetic (Hebrew): gּam-'el֮ yitּatzeka֪ la֫ne֥tzach yachetּeka֣ veyisּachaka֣ me'o֑hel veshsheֽreshsheka֨ me'e֖retz chayּi֣ym seֽlah׃
Edified Edition (EDE)"Look! Here is the man who did not make God his strength, but trusted in the abundance of his riches and strengthened himself in his wickedness."

גַּם־אֵל֮ יִתָּצְךָ֪ לָ֫נֶ֥צַח יַחְתְּךָ֣ וְיִסָּחֲךָ֣ מֵאֹ֑הֶל וְשֵֽׁרֶשְׁךָ֨ מֵאֶ֖רֶץ חַיִּ֣ים סֶֽלָה׃

8
Phonetic (Hebrew): veyire'֖u tzadּiyqi֥ym veyiyra֗'u ve'ala֥yv yishsechaֽqu׃
Edified Edition (EDE)But I am like a flourishing olive tree in the house of God; I trust in the mercy of God for ever and ever.

וְיִרְא֖וּ צַדִּיקִ֥ים וְיִירָ֗אוּ וְעָלָ֥יו יִשְׂחָֽקוּ׃

9
Phonetic (Hebrew): hinּe֤h hagּe֗ber lo֤ yashsi֥ym 'elohi֗ym maֽ'֫uzּ֥o va֭yּibetach bּero֣b 'ashsher֑o ya֝'o֗z bּehauatֽo׃
Edified Edition (EDE)I will praise you for ever because you have done it; and I will wait on your name, for it is good before your saints.

הִנֵּ֤ה הַגֶּ֗בֶר לֹ֤א יָשִׂ֥ים אֱלֹהִ֗ים מָֽע֫וּזּ֥וֹ וַ֭יִּבְטַח בְּרֹ֣ב עָשְׁר֑וֹ יָ֝עֹ֗ז בְּהַוָּתֽוֹ׃

10

וַאֲנִ֤י ׀ כְּזַ֣יִת רַ֭עֲנָן בְּבֵ֣ית אֱלֹהִ֑ים בָּטַ֥חְתִּי בְחֶֽסֶד־אֱ֝לֹהִ֗ים עוֹלָ֥ם וָעֶֽד׃

11

אוֹדְךָ֣ לְ֭עוֹלָם כִּ֣י עָשִׂ֑יתָ וַאֲקַוֶּ֖ה שִׁמְךָ֥ כִֽי־ט֝֗וֹב נֶ֣גֶד חֲסִידֶֽיךָ׃
