CHAP. LII.

1 Dauid condemning the spightfulnesse of Doeg, prophesieth his destruction. 6 The righteous shall reioyce at it. 8 Dauid vpon his confidence in Gods mercy, giueth thanks.

¹[To the chiefe Musician, Maschil, A Psalme of Dauid: When Doeg the Edomite came and told Saul, and said vnto him, Dauid is come to the house of Ahimelech.] Why boastest thou thy selfe in mischiefe, O mightie man? the goodnesse of God indureth continually.

²Thy tongue deuiseth mischiefes: like a sharpe rasor, working deceitfully.

³Thou louest euill more then good; and lying rather then to speake righteousnesse. Selah.

⁴Thou louest all deuouring words, O thou deceitfull tongue.⁴
