Today’s Daily Devotions: Why Do You Boast Of Evil, You Mighty Hero? Why Do You Boast All Day Long, You Who Are A Disgrace In The Eyes Of God?

Psalm 52

1 Why do you boast of evil, you mighty hero?
Why do you boast all day long, you who are a disgrace in the eyes of God?

2 You who practice deceit your tongue plots destruction; it is like a sharpened razor.

3 You love evil rather than good, falsehood rather than speaking the truth.

4 You love every harmful word, you deceitful tongue!

5 Surely God will bring you down to everlasting ruin: He will snatch you up and pluck you from your tent; he will uproot you from the land of the living.

6 The righteous will see and fear; they will laugh at you, saying,

7 “Here now is the man
who did not make God his stronghold
but trusted in his great wealth and grew strong by destroying others!”

8 But I am like an olive tree flourishing in the house of God;
I trust in God’s unfailing love for ever and ever.

9 For what you have done I will always praise you in the presence of your faithful people. And I will hope in your name for your name is good.
