Psalms 58:2-9

²Even in heart ye work iniquities, In the land the violence of your hands ye ponder.

³The wicked have been estranged from the womb, They have erred from the belly, speaking lies.

⁴Their poison is as poison of a serpent, As a deaf asp shutting its ear,

⁵Which hearkeneth not to the voice of whisperers, A charmer of charms most skilful.

⁶O God, break their teeth in their mouth, The jaw-teeth of young lions break down, O Jehovah.

⁷They are melted as waters, They go up and down for themselves, His arrow proceedeth as they cut themselves off.

⁸As a snail that melteth he goeth on, As an untimely birth of a woman, They have not seen the sun.

⁹Before your pots discern the bramble, As well the raw as the heated He whirleth away.
