Psalm 52:1
Parallel Strong's
Berean Study Bible
For the choirmaster. A Maskil of David. After Doeg the Edomite went to Saul and told him, “David has gone to the house of Ahimelech.” Why do you boast of evil, O mighty man? The loving devotion of God endures all day long.

Young's Literal Translation
To the Overseer.—An instruction, by David, in the coming in of Doeg the Edomite, and he declareth to Saul, and saith to him, ‘David came in unto the house of Ahimelech.’ What, boasteth thou in evil, O mighty one? The kindness of God [is] all the day.

King James Bible
{{To the chief Musician, Maschil, [A Psalm] of David, when Doeg the Edomite came and told Saul, and said unto him, David is come to the house of Ahimelech. }} Why boastest thou thyself in mischief, O mighty man? the goodness of God [endureth] continually.
