Psalms:58

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