YLT Psalms 58 Chapter
58:1
To the Overseer. -- `Destroy not.' -- A secret treasure, by David. Is it true, O dumb one, righteously ye speak? Uprightly ye judge, O sons of men?
58:2
Even in heart ye work iniquities, In the land the violence of your hands ye ponder.
58:3
The wicked have been estranged from the womb, They have erred from the belly, speaking lies.
58:4
Their poison [is] as poison of a serpent, As a deaf asp shutting its ear,
58:5
Which hearkeneth not to the voice of whisperers, A charmer of charms most skilful.
58:6
O God, break their teeth in their mouth, The jaw-teeth of young lions break down, O Jehovah.
58:7
They are melted as waters, They go up and down for themselves, His arrow proceedeth as they cut themselves off.
58:8
As a snail that melteth he goeth on, [As] an untimely birth of a woman, They have not seen the sun.
58:9
Before your pots discern the bramble, As well the raw as the heated He whirleth away.
58:10
The righteous rejoiceth that he hath seen vengeance, His steps he washeth in the blood of the wicked.
58:11
And man saith: `Surely fruit [is] for the righteous: Surely there is a God judging in the earth!'
