David, condemning the spitefulness of Doeg, prophesieth his destruction.1 ¶ [[To the chief Musician,ºª Maschil,ºª [A Psalm] of David,º when Doegº the Edomiteº cameºª and toldºª Saul,º and saidºª unto him, Davidº is comeºª to² the houseº of Ahimelech.]]º Why² boastest¹ª thou thyself² in mischief,º O mighty¹ man?² the goodnessº of Godº [endureth] continually.º² 2 Thy tongueº devisethºª mischiefs;º like a sharpºª razor,º workingºª deceitfully.º 3 Thou lovestºª evilº more than good;º² [and] lyingº rather than to speakºª² righteousness.º Selah.º 4 Thou lovestºª all² devouringº words,º O [thou] deceitfulº tongue.º 5 Godº shall likewise² destroyºª thee for ever,º he shall take thee away,ºª and pluck thee outºª of [thy] dwelling place,º² and root² thee out¹ª of the landº² of the living.º Selah.º [1] Gn 6:4; 10:8; Ex 22:9; 1S 21:7; Ps 7:14; 10:2, 7; 36:3; 59:7; 94:4; 103:17; 107:1; 137:1; Pv 6:14, 18; Is 59:4; Jr 9:8; Mi 7:3; Ro 1:30; 2Ti 3:2; 1Jn 4:7.
