1: Why do you brag of evil, "Big Man"? God's mercy carries the day.
2: You scheme catastrophe; your tongue cuts razor-sharp, artisan in lies.
3: You love evil more than good, you call black white.
4: You love malicious gossip, you foul-mouth.
5: God will tear you limb from limb, sweep you up and throw you out, Pull you up by the roots from the land of life.
6: Good people will watch and worship. They'll laugh in relief:
7: "Big Man bet on the wrong horse, trusted in big money, made his living from catastrophe."
8: And I'm an olive tree, growing green in God's house. I trusted in the generous mercy of God then and now.
9: I thank you always that you went into action. And I'll stay right here, your good name my hope, in company with your faithful friends.
