Psalm 52 (NLT)
Why do you boast about your crimes, great warrior?
Don’t you realize God’s justice continues forever?
All day long you plot destruction.
Your tongue cuts like a sharp razor;
you’re an expert at telling lies.
You love evil more than good
and lies more than truth. Interlude
You love to destroy others with your words,
you liar!
But God will strike you down once and for all.
He will pull you from your home
and uproot you from the land of the living.
The righteous will see it and be amazed.
They will laugh and say,
“Look what happens to mighty warriors
who do not trust in God.
They trust their wealth instead
and grow more and more bold in their wickedness.”
But I am like an olive tree, thriving in the house of God.
I will always trust in God’s unfailing love.
I will praise you forever, O God,
for what you have done.
I will trust in your good name
in the presence of your faithful people.

Pray
Our Great God, Your justice endures forever! Though the world plots against You and the Kingdom of Your Son, You plans will not be thwarted. You humble the proud but give grace to the humble. Forgive us for envying the wicked and longing for the pleasures of the world. Thank You for drawing us into Your presence by the work of Christ. Enable us by Your Spirit to trust in Your unfailing love at all times. In Jesus name we pray. Amen.
