Psalms, psalm 58
Compare with Revised Standard Version: Psal.058
1: Do ye indeed speak righteousness, O congregation?
do ye judge uprightly, O ye sons of men?
2: Yea, in heart ye work wickedness; ye weigh the violence of your
hands in the earth.
3: The wicked are estranged from the womb: they go astray as soon as
they be born, speaking lies.
4: Their poison is like the poison of a serpent: they are like the
deaf adder that stoppeth her ear;
5: Which will not hearken to the voice of charmers, charming never
so wisely.
6: Break their teeth, O JAH, in their mouth: break out the great teeth
of the young lions, O JAH.
7: Let them melt away as waters which run continually: when he bendeth
his bow to shoot his arrows, let them be as cut in pieces.
8: As 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.
9: Before your pots can feel the thorns, he shall take them away as
with a whirlwind, both living, and in his wrath.
10: The righteous shall rejoice when he seeth the vengeance: he shall
wash his feet in the blood of the wicked.
11: So that a man shall say, Verily there is a reward for the righteous:
verily he is a God that judgeth in the earth.
