⁵ This is why God will bring you down forever.
He will take you, ripping you out of your tent;
he will uproot you from the land of the living.Selah
⁶ The righteous will see and fear,
and they will derisively say about that hero,^[a]
7 “Here is the man
who would not make God his refuge,
but trusted in the abundance of his riches,
taking refuge in his destructive behavior.”

⁸ But I am like a flourishing olive tree
in the house of God;
I trust in God’s faithful love forever and ever.
⁹ I will praise you forever for what you have done.
In the presence of your faithful people,
I will put my hope in your name, for it is good.
