Psalms 58:3-9

3Wicked people do wrong things from their birth. As soon as they are born, they start telling lies.

4Their words hurt people like a snake's poison. They listen to nobody, like a deaf cobra.

5It does not obey the voice of the magician, even if he sings very well!

6God, break the teeth of my enemies! Yes, Lord, break into pieces the teeth of those lions!

7Cause them to run away like water and disappear. Cause them to die like dry grass in hot weather.

8Cause them to be like a worm that melts as it moves along. Cause them to be like a child that is born dead and never sees the light of day.

9Remove them quickly, more quickly than pots become hot over a fire of thorn bushes.
