詩篇 58

1 大衛的金詩，交與伶長。調用休要毀壞。 世人哪，你們默然不語，真合公義嗎？ 施行審判，豈按正直嗎？

For the Chief Musician; [set to] Al-tashheth. [A Psalm] of David: Michtam. Do ye indeed in silence speak righteousness? do ye judge uprightly, O ye sons of men?

2 不然！你們是心中作惡； 你們在地上秤出你們手所行的強暴。

Yea, in heart ye work wickedness; ye weigh out the violence of your hands in the earth.

3 惡人一出母胎就與上帝疏遠， 一離母腹便走錯路，說謊話。

The wicked are estranged from the womb: they go astray as soon as they be born, speaking lies.

4 他們的毒氣好像蛇的毒氣； 他們好像塞耳的聾虺，

Their poison is like the poison of a serpent: [they are] like the deaf adder that stoppeth her ear;

5 不聽行法術的聲音， 雖用極靈的咒語也是不聽。

Which hearkeneth not to the voice of charmers, charming never so wisely.

6 上帝啊，求你敲碎他們口中的牙！ 耶和華啊，求你敲掉少壯獅子的大牙！

Break their teeth, O God, in their mouth: break out the great teeth of the young lions, O LORD.

7 願他們消滅，如急流的水一般； 他們瞅準射箭的時候，願箭頭彷彿砍斷。

Let them melt away as water that runneth apace: when he aimeth his arrows, let them be as though they were cut off.

8 願他們像蝸牛消化過去， 又像婦人墜落未見天日的胎。

[Let them be] as a snail which melteth and passeth away: [like] the untimely birth of a woman, that hath not seen the sun.

9 你們用荊棘燒火，鍋還未熱， 他要用旋風把青的和燒着的一齊颳去。

Before your pots can feel the thorns, he shall take them away with a whirlwind, the green and the burning alike.

10 義人見仇敵遭報就歡喜， 要在惡人的血中洗腳。

The righteous shall rejoice when he seeth the vengeance: he shall wash his feet in the blood of the wicked.

11 因此，人必說：義人誠然有善報； 在地上果有施行判斷的上帝！

So that men shall say, Verily there is a reward for the righteous: verily there is a God that judgeth in the earth.
