(For the one directing. A maskil of Dovid. When Doeg HaAdomi [the Edomite] went to Sha'ul and said to him, Dovid has gone to Bais Achimelech). Why boastest thou thyself in ra'ah, O gibbor? The chesed El is kol hayom.
The leshon (tongue) deviseth treachery; like a sharp ta'ar (razor), working remiyyah (deceit).
Thou lovest rah more than tov; and sheker rather than to speak tzedek. Selah.
Thou lovest all devouring words, O thou leshon mirmah (deceitful tongue).

גַּם־ SDBH Surely אֵל֮ SDBH G-d יִתָּצְךָ֪ SDBH will bring you down לָ֫נֶ֥צַח SDBH to everlasting ruin יַחְתְּךָ֣ SDBH He will snatch you up וְיִסָּחֲךָ֣ SDBH and tear you away מֵאֹ֑הֶל SDBH from [your] tent וְשֵֽׁרֶשְׁךָ֨ SDBH He will uproot you מֵאֶ֖רֶץ SDBH from the land חַיִּ֣ים SDBH of the living סֶֽלָה׃ SDBH Selah
El shall likewise demolish thee for netzach (eternity), He shall break thee, and pluck thee out of thy ohel, and uproot thee out of the Eretz Chayyim. Selah.

וְיִרְא֖וּ SDBH will see צַדִּיקִ֥ים SDBH The righteous וְיִירָ֗אוּ SDBH and fear וְעָלָ֥יו vvv יִשְׂחָֽקוּ׃ SDBH they will mock [the evildoer], saying
The tzaddikim also shall see, and fear, and shall laugh at him:

הִנֵּ֤ה Look at הַגֶּ֗בֶר SDBH the man לֹ֤א SDBH who did not יָשִׂ֥ים SDBH make אֱלֹהִ֗ים SDBH G-d מָֽע֫וּזּ֥וֹ SDBH his refuge וַ֭יִּבְטַח SDBH but trusted בְּרֹ֣ב in the abundance עָשְׁר֑וֹ SDBH of his wealth יָ֝עֹ֗ז SDBH [and] strengthened himself בְּהַוָּתֽוֹ׃ SDBH by destruction
Hinei, this is the gever (man) that made not Elohim his ma'oz; but trusted in the abundance of his osher (riches), and strengthened himself in his treachery.
But I am like a green zayit (olive tree) in the Beis Elohim; I trust in the chesed Elohim olam va'ed.

אוֹדְךָ֣ SDBH I will praise You לְ֭עוֹלָם SDBH forever כִּ֣י because עָשִׂ֑יתָ SDBH You have done it וַאֲקַוֶּ֖ה SDBH I will wait on שִׁמְךָ֥ SDBH Your name כִֽי־ for ט֝֗וֹב SDBH it is good נֶ֣גֶד in the presence חֲסִידֶֽיךָ׃ SDBH of Your saints
I will give Thee thanks l'olam, because Thou hast done it; and I will wait on Shimecha; for it is tov before Thy chasidim.
