58:1 For the Chief Musician; [set to] Al-tashheth. [A Psalm] of David. Michtam. Do you+ indeed in silence speak righteousness? Do you+ judge uprightly, O you+ sons of man?
58:2 No, in heart you+ work wickedness; You+ weigh out the violence of your+ hands in the earth. 58:3 The wicked are estranged from the womb: They go astray as soon as they are born, speaking lies. 58:4 Their poison is like the poison of a serpent: [They are] like the deaf cobra that stops her ear, 58:5 Which does not harken to the voice of charmers Using magic words with mastery. 58:6 Break their teeth, O God, in their mouth: Break out the great teeth of the young lions, O Yahweh. 58:7 Let them melt away as water that runs apace: When he aims his arrows, let them be as though they were cut off. 58:8 [Let them be] as a snail which melts and passes away, [Like] the untimely birth of a woman, that has not seen the sun. 58:9 Before your+ pots can feel the thorns, He will take them away with a whirlwind, the green and the burning alike. 58:10 The righteous will rejoice when he sees the vengeance: He will wash his feet in the blood of the wicked; 58:11 So that man will say, Truly there is a reward for the righteous: Truly there is a God who judges in the earth. |
