Psalms 58:3-9

3These wicked people are born sinners; even from birth they have lied and gone their own way.

4They spit venom like deadly snakes; they are like cobras that refuse to listen,

5ignoring the tunes of the snake charmers, no matter how skillfully they play.

6Break off their fangs, O God! Smash the jaws of these lions, O Lord!

7May they disappear like water into thirsty ground. Make their weapons useless in their hands.

8May they be like snails that dissolve into slime, like a stillborn child who will never see the sun.

9God will sweep them away, both young and old, faster than a pot heats over burning thorns.
