Psalms 58

To the chief Musician. 'Destroy not.' Of David. Michtam.

1Isrighteousness indeed silent? Do ye speak it? Do ye judgewithequity, ye sonsofmen?

2Yea,inheart ye work wickedness; ye weigh outtheviolenceofyourhandsintheearth.

3Thewicked go astrayfromthewomb;theyerrassoonastheyareborn, speaking lies.

4Theirpoisonislikethepoisonofaserpent: [theyare] likethedeaf adder which stoppeth her ear;

5Whichdoth not hearkentothevoiceofenchanters,ofone charming eversowisely.

6OGod, breaktheirteethintheirmouth; break outthegreat teethoftheyoung lions,OJehovah.

7Letthemmelt awayaswatersthatflow off;whenheaimethhisarrows, letthembeasblunted:

8Letthembeasasnailthatmeltethasitpassethaway; [like]theuntimely birthofawoman,letthemnotseethesun.

9Beforeyourpots feelthethorns, greenorburning, —theyshallbe whirledaway.

10Therighteous shall rejoicewhenheseeththevengeance;heshall washhisfootstepsinthebloodofthewicked:
