Psalm 58

1 To the chief Musician,5329 Al-taschith,516 Michtam4387 of David.1732 Do ye indeed552 speak1696 righteousness,6664 O congregation?482 do ye judge8199 uprightly,4339 O ye sons1121 of men?120

2 Yea,637 in heart3820 ye work6466 wickedness;5766 ye weigh6424 the violence2555 of your hands3027 in the earth.776

3 The wicked7563 are estranged2114 from the womb:4480 7358 they go astray8582 as soon as they be born,4480 990 speaking1696 lies.3577

4 Their poison2534 is like1823 the poison2534 of a serpent:5175 they are like3644 the deaf2795 adder6620 that stoppeth331 her ear;241

5 Which834 will not3808 hearken8085 to the voice6963 of charmers,3907 charming2266 2267 never so wisely.2449

6 Break2040 their teeth,8127 O God,430 in their mouth:6310 break out5422 the great teeth4459 of the young lions,3715 O LORD.3068

7 Let them melt away3988 as3644 waters4325 which run1980 continually: when he bendeth1869 his bow to shoot his arrows,2671 let them be as3644 cut in pieces.4135

8 As3644 a snail7642 which melteth,8557 let every one of them pass away:1980 like the untimely birth5309 of a woman,802 that they may not1077 see2372 the sun.8121

9 Before2962 your pots5518 can feel995 the thorns,329 he shall take them away as with a whirlwind,8175 both3644 living,2416 and in3644 his wrath.2740

10 The righteous6662 shall rejoice8055 when3588 he seeth2372 the vengeance:5359 he shall wash7364 his feet6471 in the blood1818 of the wicked.7563

11 So that a man120 shall say,559 Verily389 there is a reward6529 for the righteous:6662 verily389 he is3426 a God430 that judgeth8199 in the earth.776

Psalms

Psalm 58

1 DO you indeed speak righteousness. O congregation? do you judge uprightly, O sons of men?

2 Behold you all speak evil on earth, and your hands are soiled with injustice.

3 The wicked are known from the womb; they go astray as soon as they are born, speaking lies.

4 Their poison is like the poison of a serpent; they are like the deaf adder that stops its ear,

5 And will not listen to the voice of the whisperer, neither to the charmer nor to the wise.

6 Break their teeth in their mouths, O God; pull out the fangs of the lions, O LORD.

7 Let them be rejected as water which is contaminated; let God shoot his arrows until the wicked are destroyed.

8 Like the wax that melts, and drips before the fire, let them be destroyed: fire has fallen from heaven and they did not see; the light of truth has been given and they did not understand.

9 Let their thorns be increased, and fear of wrath shake them violently.

10 The righteous shall rejoice when he sees the vengeance: he shall wash his hands in the blood of the wicked,

11 So that a man shall say, Verily there is a reward for the righteous; verily there is a God that judges in the earth.
