Read in context

Psalms 52:6–9 · Berean Standard Bible

6 The righteous will see and fear; they will mock the evildoer, saying,

7 “Look at the man who did not make God his refuge, but trusted in the abundance of his wealth and strengthened himself by destruction.”

8 But I am like an olive tree flourishing in the house of God; I trust in the loving devotion of God forever and ever.

9 I will praise You forever, because You have done it. I will wait on Your name— for it is good— in the presence of Your saints.
