King James Version
AFR DVK
1
To the chief Musician, Maschil, [A Psalm] of David, when Doeg the Edomite came and told Saul, and said unto him, David is come to the house of Ahimelech. Why boastest thou thyself in mischief, O mighty man? the goodness of God [endureth] continually.
Waarom roem jy jouself in boosheid, o magtige man? die goedheid van God bestaan voortdurend.
2
Thy tongue deviseth mischiefs; like a sharp rasor, working deceitfully.
Jou tong bedink booshede; soos ‚'n skerp skeermes, wat bedrieglik werk.
3
Thou lovest evil more than good; [and] lying rather than to speak righteousness. Selah.
Jy lief die kwaad meer as die goeie; en leuens meer as om geregtigheid te spreek. Sela.
4
Thou lovest all devouring words, O [thou] deceitful tongue.
Jy lief al die verslindende woorde, o jy bedrieglike tong.
5
God shall likewise destroy thee for ever, he shall take thee away, and pluck thee out of [thy] dwelling place, and root thee out of the land of the living. Selah.
God sal jou ook vir ewig vernietig, Hy sal jou wegruk, en jou uit jou woning uittrek, en jou uit die land van die lewendes ontwortel. Sela.
6
The righteous also shall see, and fear, and shall laugh at him:
Die regverdiges sal dit ook sien, en vrees, en oor hom lag:
7
Lo, [this is] the man [that] made not God his strength; but trusted in the abundance of his riches, [and] strengthened himself in his wickedness.
Kyk, dit is die man wat God nie tot sy sterkte gemaak het nie; maar op die menigte van sy rykdom vertrou het, en homself in sy goddeloosheid versterk het.
8
But I [am] like a green olive tree in the house of God: I trust in the mercy of God for ever and ever.
Maar ek is soos ‚'n groen olyfboom in die huis van God: ek vertrou op die barmhartigheid van God vir ewig en altyd.
9
I will praise thee for ever, because thou hast done [it]: and I will wait on thy name; for [it is] good before thy saints.
Ek sal U vir ewig prys, omdat U dit gedoen het: en ek sal op u Naam wag; want dit is goed voor u heiliges.
