< Псалтирь 58 >
1 В конец, да не растлиши, Давиду в столпописание. Аще воистинну убо правду глаголете, правая судите, сынове человечестии.
To the chief Musician, Altaschith, Michtam of David. Do ye indeed speak righteousness, O congregation? do ye judge uprightly, O ye sons of men?
2 Ибо в сердцы беззаконие делаете на земли, неправду руки вашя сплетают.
Yea, in heart ye work wickedness; ye weigh the violence of your hands in the earth.
3 Очуждишася грешницы от ложесн, заблудиша от чрева, глаголаша лжу.
The wicked are estranged from the womb: they go astray as soon as they are born, speaking lies.
4 Ярость их по подобию змиину, яко аспида глуха и затыкающаго уши свои,
Their poison is like the poison of a serpent: they are like the deaf adder that stoppeth her ear;
5 иже не услышит гласа обавающих, обаваемь обавается от премудра.
Which will not hearken to the voice of charmers, charming never so wisely.
6 Бог сокрушит зубы их во устех их: членовныя львов сокрушил есть Господь.
Break their teeth, O God, in their mouth: break out the great teeth of the young lions, O LORD.
7 Уничижатся яко вода мимотекущая: напряжет лук свой, дондеже изнемогут.
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 Яко воск растаяв отимутся: паде огнь на них, и не видеша солнца.
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 Прежде еже разумети терния вашего рамна, яко живы, яко во гневе пожрет я.
Before your pots can feel the thorns, he shall take them away as with a whirlwind, both living, and in his wrath.
10 Возвеселится праведник, егда увидит отмщение: руце свои умыет в крови грешника.
The righteous shall rejoice when he seeth the vengeance: he shall wash his feet in the blood of the wicked.
11 И речет человек: аще убо есть плод праведнику, убо есть Бог судя им на земли.
So that a man shall say, Verily there is a reward for the righteous: verily he is a God that judgeth in the earth.
