DO you indeed speak righteousness, you silent ones? Do you judge uprightly, you sons of men?
2 No, in heart you work wickedness; you weigh out the violence of your hands in the earth.
3 The wicked are estranged from the womb; they go astray as soon as they are born, speaking lies.
4 Their poison is like the poison of a serpent; they are like the deaf cobra that stops its ear,
5 Which will not heed the voice of charmers, charming ever so skillfully.
6 Break their teeth in their mouth, O God! Break out the fangs of young lions, O LORD!
7 Let them flow away as waters which run continually; when he bends his bow, let his arrows be as if cut in pieces.
8 Let them be like a snail melt away as it goes, like a stillborn child of a woman, that they may not see the sun.
9 Before your pots can fell the burning throns, He shall take them away as with a whirlwind, as in His living and burning wrath.
10 The righteous shall rejoice when he sees the vengeance; He shall wash his feet in the blood of wicked,
11 So that men will say, "Surely there is a reward for the righteous; surely He is God who judges in the earth. " PSALM 58
