Amplified Bible
Psalms 58:3-9
3The wicked are estranged from the womb; These go astray from birth, speaking lies [even twisted partial truths].
4Their poison is like the venom of a serpent; They are like the deaf horned viper that stops up its ear,
5So that it does not listen to the voice of charmers, Or of the skillful enchanter casting [cunning] spells.
6O God, break their teeth in their mouth; Break out the fangs of the young lions, O Lord.
7Let them flow away like water that runs off; When he aims his arrows, let them be as headless shafts.
8Let them be as a snail which melts away (secretes slime) as it goes along, Like the miscarriage of a woman which never sees the sun.
9Before your cooking pots can feel the fire of thorns [burning under them as fuel], He will sweep them away with a whirlwind, the green and the burning ones alike.
