Why do you boast in evil, O mighty man?
The love of God endures all day long.
Your tongue devises destruction like a sharpened razor.
O you worker of deceit!
You love evil more than good, falsehood more than speaking right.
You love all words that devour your deceitful tongue.
But as for me, I am like a green olive tree in the house of God.
I will trust in the love of God forever and ever.
But God will break you down forever.
He will snatch you up and tear you from the tent.
Uprooting you from the land of the living.
The righteous will see with fear and say with scorn.
See the man who would not make God his refuge, but instead the surplus of his
wealth and his strong desire.
But as for me, I am like a green olive tree in the house of God.
I will trust in the love of God forever and ever.
I will give you thanks forever.
Because you, O Lord, have done this.
I'll wait upon your name, for it is good.
In the presence of your godly ones.
As for me, I am like a green olive tree in the house of God.
I will trust in the love of God forever and ever.
Yes, as for me, I am like a green olive tree in the house of God.
I will trust in the love of God forever and ever.
