Psalms 58:3-9

3The wicked are estranged from the womb: they go astray as soon as they are born, speaking lies.1 4Their poison is like the poison of a serpent: they are like the deaf adder that stoppeth her ear;23 5Which will not hearken to the voice of charmers, charming never so wisely.4

6Break their teeth, O God, in their mouth: break out the great teeth of the young lions, O LORD. 7Let them melt away as waters which run continually: when he bendeth his bow to shoot his arrows, let them be as cut in pieces. 8As a snail which melteth, let every one of them pass away: like the untimely birth of a woman, that they may not see the sun. 9Before your pots can feel the thorns, he shall take them away as with a whirlwind, both living, and in his wrath.5
