Psalms 58:4-8

⁴God, 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!

⁵As 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.

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

⁷Cause them to disappear like water disappears in dry ground! Cause the arrows that they shoot to have no ◄heads/sharp points►!

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