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 manwho did not make God his strongholdbut trusted in his great wealthand grew strong by destroying others!’
8. But I am like an olive treeflourishing in the house of God;I trust in God’s unfailing lovefor ever and ever.
9. For what you have done I will always praise youin the presence of your faithful people.And I will hope in your name,for your name is good.
