< Psalms 58 >
1 To him that excelleth. Destroy not. A Psalme of David on Michtam. Is it true? O Congregation, speake ye iustly? O sonnes of men, iudge ye vprightly?
To the choirmaster al-tashcheth of David a miktam. ¿ Really silence righteousness do you speak! uprightness do you judge? [the] children of humankind.
2 Yea, rather ye imagine mischiefe in your heart: your hands execute crueltie vpon the earth.
Also in [the] heart injustice you do! in the land [the] violence of hands your you weigh out!
3 The wicked are strangers from ye wombe: euen from the belly haue they erred, and speake lyes.
They turn aside wicked [people] from [the] womb they go astray from [the] belly [those who] speak falsehood.
4 Their poyson is euen like the poyson of a serpent: like ye deafe adder that stoppeth his eare.
Venom of them [is] like [the] likeness of [the] venom of a snake like a cobra deaf [which] it shuts ear its.
5 Which heareth not the voyce of the inchanter, though he be most expert in charming.
Which not it listens to [the] sound of charmers [one who] casts spells skillful.
6 Breake their teeth, O God, in their mouthes: breake the iawes of the yong lions, O Lord.
O God break away teeth their in mouth their [the] teeth of young lions break off - O Yahweh.
7 Let them melt like the waters, let them passe away: when hee shooteth his arrowes, let them be as broken.
May they flow like waters [which] they go about themselves may he bend (arrows his *Q(K)*) like let them be cut off.
8 Let them consume like a snayle that melteth, and like the vntimely fruite of a woman, that hath not seene the sunne.
Like a snail [which] melting away it goes a miscarriage of a woman [which] not they have seen [the] sun.
9 As raw flesh before your pots feele the fire of thornes: so let him cary them away as with a whirlewinde in his wrath.
Before they will perceive pots your a thorn bush like alive like burning he will blow away it.
10 The righteous shall reioyce when he seeeth the vengeance: he shall wash his feete in the blood of the wicked.
He will rejoice [the] righteous if he has seen vengeance feet his he will bathe in [the] blood of the wicked.
11 And men shall say, Verily there is fruite for the righteous: doutlesse there is a God that iudgeth in the earth.
So he may say anyone surely fruit [belongs] to the righteous surely there [is] a God [who] judges on the earth.
