Psalms 58:1-5
112Do ye indeedH552 speakH1696 righteousnessH6664, O congregationH482? do ye judgeH8199 uprightlyH4339, O ye sonsH1121 of menH120?
2Yea, in heartH3820 ye workH6466 wickednessH5766; ye weighH6424 the violenceH2555 of your handsH3027 in the earthH776.
3The wickedH7563 are estrangedH2114 from the wombH7358: they go astrayH8582 as soon as they be bornH990, speakingH1696 liesH3577.3
4Their poisonH2534 is likeH1823 the poisonH2534 of a serpentH5175: they are like the deafH2795 adderH6620 that stoppethH331 her earH241;45
5Which will not hearkenH8085 to the voiceH6963 of charmersH3907, charmingH2267H2266 never so wiselyH2449.6
