1. You people may be strongand boast about your sins,but God can be trustedday after day.
2. You plan brutal crimes,and your lying words cutlike a sharp razor.
3. You would rather do evilthan good, and tell liesthan speak the truth.
4. You love to say cruel things,and your words are a trap.
5. God will destroy you for ever!He will grab you and drag youfrom your homes.You will be uprootedand left to die.
6. When good people seethis fearsome sight,they will laugh and say,
7. “Just look at them now!Instead of trusting God,they trusted their wealthand their cruelty.”
8. But I am like an olive treegrowing in God's house,and I can count on his lovefor ever and ever.
9. I will always thank Godfor what he has done;I will praise his good namewhen his people meet.
