Tap a verse to highlight it

1 (以東人 多益 來 告訴 掃羅 說:大衛 到了 亞希米勒 家。那時,大衛 作這訓誨詩,交與伶長。)勇士啊,你為何 以作惡 自誇? 神 的慈愛 是常存的。

2 你的舌頭 邪惡 詭詐,好像剃頭刀,快利 傷人。

3 你愛 惡 勝似愛善,又愛說謊,不愛說 公義。(細拉)

4 詭詐 的舌頭啊,你愛 說一切 毀滅 的話!

5 神 也要 毀滅你,直到永遠;他要把你拿去,從你的帳棚中 抽出,從活人 之地 將你拔出。(細拉)

6 義人 要看見 而懼怕,並要笑 他,

7 說:看哪,這就是那不 以 神 為他力量 的人,只倚仗 他豐富的 財物,在邪惡上 堅立自己。

8 至於我,就像 神 殿中 的青 橄欖樹;我永永遠遠 倚靠 神 的慈愛。

9 我要稱謝你,直到永遠,因為 你行了這事。我也要在你聖民 面前 仰望 你的名; 這名本為美好。
