1Strong man, why are you so proud

about the evil things that you like to do?

Remember that God's faithful love keeps me safe.

2Your tongue is like a sharp knife!

You talk about how to hurt other people,

You speak nothing but lies.

3You love to do evil things,

not good things.

You love to tell lies

more than the truth.

4You love to say cruel words.

You speak to deceive others.

5But God will knock you down,

and he will break you into pieces.

He will take you away from your home.

He will remove you from this world where people live.

6 Righteous people will see what has happened,

and they will be afraid.

Then they will laugh at the wicked person,

and they will say,

7‘Look! This man did not trust God to keep him safe.

Instead, he trusted in his riches.

He thought that he could be cruel,

and that would keep him safe.’

8But I am like a strong olive tree

that grows in the house of God.

I will always trust in God's faithful love for his people.

9I will always praise you, God,

for what you have done.

I will trust you to help me,

together with all those who serve you.
