1. Hey, powerful person!Why do you brag about evil?God’s faithful love lasts all day long.
2. Your tongue devises destruction:it’s like a sharpened razor, causing deception.
3. You love evil more than good;you love lying more than speaking what is right. Selah
4. You love all destructive words;you love the deceiving tongue.
5. But God will take you down permanently;he will snatch you up,tear you out of your tent,and uproot you from the land of the living! Selah
6. The righteous will see and be in awe;they will laugh at those people:
7. "Look at them! They didn’t make God their refuge.Instead, they trusted in their own great wealth.They sought refuge in it—to their own destruction!"
