Psalms 52:1-4 Metrical Psalms 1650 (MP1650)

1. Why dost thou boast, O mighty man,of mischief and of ill?The goodness of Almighty Godendureth ever still.

2. Thy tongue mischievous calumniesdeviseth subtilely,Like to a razor sharp to cut,working deceitfully.

3. Ill more than good, and more than truththou lovest to speak wrong:

4. Thou lovest all-devouring words,O thou deceitful tongue.
