Psalms 58:4 (NLT) New Living Translation

1 Justice-- do you rulers know the meaning of the word? Do you judge the people fairly?
2 No! You plot injustice in your hearts. You spread violence throughout the land.
3 These wicked people are born sinners; even from birth they have lied and gone their own way.
4 They spit venom like deadly snakes; they are like cobras that refuse to listen,
5 ignoring the tunes of the snake charmers, no matter how skillfully they play.
6 Break off their fangs, O God! Smash the jaws of these lions, O LORD!
7 May they disappear like water into thirsty ground. Make their weapons useless in their hands.
8 May they be like snails that dissolve into slime, like a stillborn child who will never see the sun.
9 God will sweep them away, both young and old, faster than a pot heats over burning thorns.
10 The godly will rejoice when they see injustice avenged. They will wash their feet in the blood of the wicked.
11 Then at last everyone will say, "There truly is a reward for those who live for God; surely there is a God who judges justly here on earth." For the choir director: A psalm of David, regarding the time Saul sent soldiers to watch David's house in order to kill him. To be sung to the tune "Do Not Destroy!"
1 To the chief Musician, H5329 Al- H516 taschith, Michtam H4387 of David. H1732 Do ye indeed H552 speak H1696 righteousness, H6664 O congregation H482 ? do ye judge H8199 uprightly, H4339 O ye sons H1121 of men H120 ?
2 Yea H637 , in heart H3820 ye work H6466 wickedness; H5766 ye weigh H6424 the violence H2555 of your hands H3027 in the earth. H776
3 The wicked H7563 are estranged H2114 from the womb H4480 H7358 : they go astray H8582 as soon as they be born H4480 H990 , speaking H1696 lies. H3577
4 Their poison H2534 is like H1823 the poison H2534 of a serpent: H5175 they are like H3644 the deaf H2795 adder H6620 that stoppeth H331 her ear; H241
5 Which H834 will not H3808 hearken H8085 to the voice H6963 of charmers, H3907 charming H2266 H2267 never so wisely. H2449
6 Break H2040 their teeth, H8127 O God, H430 in their mouth: H6310 break out H5422 the great teeth H4459 of the young lions, H3715 O LORD. H3068
7 Let them melt away H3988 as H3644 waters H4325 which run H1980 continually: when he bendeth H1869 his bow to shoot his arrows, H2671 let them be as H3644 cut in pieces. H4135
8 As H3644 a snail H7642 which melteth, H8557 let every one of them pass away: H1980 like the untimely birth H5309 of a woman, H802 that they may not H1077 see H2372 the sun. H8121
9 Before H2962 your pots H5518 can feel H995 the thorns, H329 he shall take them away as with a whirlwind, H8175 both H3644 living, H2416 and in H3644 his wrath. H2740
10 The righteous H6662 shall rejoice H8055 when H3588 he seeth H2372 the vengeance: H5359 he shall wash H7364 his feet H6471 in the blood H1818 of the wicked. H7563
11 So that a man H120 shall say, H559 Verily H389 there is a reward H6529 for the righteous: H6662 verily H389 he is H3426 a God H430 that judgeth H8199 in the earth. H776
