Psalms 58

1 When you mighty men speak, you never say what is right; you never decide things about people justly [RHQ]!

大卫的金诗，交与伶长。调用休要毁坏。 世人哪，你们默然不语，真合公义吗？ 施行审判，岂按正直吗？

2 No, in your inner beings you think only about doing what is wrong, and you commit violent crimes in this land [of Israel].

不然！你们是心中作恶； 你们在地上秤出你们手所行的强暴。

3 Wicked people do wrong things and tell lies from the time that they are born [DOU].

恶人一出母胎就与 神疏远， 一离母腹便走错路，说谎话。

4 God, show in the heavens how great you are! And show your glory to people all over the earth! What wicked people say [injures people like] the venom of a snake [MET]; They refuse to listen to good advice, [as though they were] cobras that were deaf [MET]!

他们的毒气好像蛇的毒气； 他们好像塞耳的聋虺，

5 As a result, [like a snake that does not respond when] a charmer plays a flute or when someone sings magic songs, [they do not pay attention when others rebuke them].

不听行法术的声音， 虽用极灵的咒语也是不听。

6 God, as for these enemies who [want to attack me like] young lions, break their teeth!

神啊，求你敲碎他们口中的牙！ 耶和华啊，求你敲掉少壮狮子的大牙！

7 Cause them to disappear like water disappears [in dry ground]! Cause the arrows that they shoot to have no (heads/sharp points)!

愿他们消灭，如急流的水一般； 他们瞅准射箭的时候，愿箭头仿佛砍断。

8 Cause them to become like snails that disappear in the slime; cause them to be like babies that are born dead!

愿他们像蜗牛消化过去， 又像妇人坠落未见天日的胎。

9 Get rid of them [as fast as] thornbushes are blown away [after they are cut] (OR, [as fast as] a fire heats a pot over burning thorns).

你们用荆棘烧火，锅还未热， 他要用旋风把青的和烧着的一齐刮去。

10 Righteous people will rejoice when they see wicked people being punished as they deserve; they will wash their feet in the blood of wicked people.

义人见仇敌遭报就欢喜， 要在恶人的血中洗脚。

11 [Then] people will say, “It is true that there is a reward for righteous people; and there is indeed a God who judges people justly here on the earth!”

因此，人必说：义人诚然有善报； 在地上果有施行判断的 神！
