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.
