< Psalms 58 >

1 To the choirmaster al-tashcheth of David a miktam. ¿ Really silence righteousness do you speak! uprightness do you judge? [the] children of humankind.
For the choirmaster. To the tune of “Do Not Destroy.” A Miktam of David. Do you indeed speak justly, O rulers? Do you judge uprightly, O sons of men?
2 Also in [the] heart injustice you do! in the land [the] violence of hands your you weigh out!
No, in your hearts you devise injustice; with your hands you mete out violence on the earth.
3 They turn aside wicked [people] from [the] womb they go astray from [the] belly [those who] speak falsehood.
The wicked are estranged from the womb; the liars go astray from birth.
4 Venom of them [is] like [the] likeness of [the] venom of a snake like a cobra deaf [which] it shuts ear its.
Their venom is like the venom of a snake, like a cobra that shuts its ears,
5 Which not it listens to [the] sound of charmers [one who] casts spells skillful.
refusing to hear the tune of the charmer who skillfully weaves his spell.
6 O God break away teeth their in mouth their [the] teeth of young lions break off - O Yahweh.
O God, shatter their teeth in their mouths; O LORD, tear out the fangs of the lions.
7 May they flow like waters [which] they go about themselves may he bend (arrows his *Q(K)*) like let them be cut off.
May they vanish like water that runs off; when they draw the bow, may their arrows be blunted.
8 Like a snail [which] melting away it goes a miscarriage of a woman [which] not they have seen [the] sun.
Like a slug that dissolves in its slime, like a woman’s stillborn child, may they never see the sun.
9 Before they will perceive pots your a thorn bush like alive like burning he will blow away it.
Before your pots can feel the burning thorns— whether green or dry— He will sweep them away.
10 He will rejoice [the] righteous if he has seen vengeance feet his he will bathe in [the] blood of the wicked.
The righteous will rejoice when they see they are avenged; they will wash their feet in the blood of the wicked.
11 So he may say anyone surely fruit [belongs] to the righteous surely there [is] a God [who] judges on the earth.
Then men will say, “There is surely a reward for the righteous! There is surely a God who judges the earth!”
