1For the Chief Musician. A contemplation by David, when Doeg the Edomite came and told Saul, "David has come to Abimelech's house." 2Your tongue plots destruction, 3You love evil more than good, 4You love all devouring words, 5God will likewise destroy you forever. 6The righteous also will see it, and fear, 7"Behold, this is the man who did not make God his strength, 8But as for me, I am like a green olive tree in God's house. 9I will give you thanks forever, because you have done it.
