58:1 1 He describeth the malice of his enemies, the flatterers of Saul, who both secretly and openly sought his destruction, from whom he appealeth to God’s judgment, 10 Showing that the just shall rejoice, when they see the punishment of the wicked to the glory of God. To him that excelleth. Destroy not. A Psalm of David on Michtam. Is it true? O congregation, speak ye justly? O sons of men judge ye uprightly?
58:2 Yea, rather ye imagine mischief in your heart: your hands execute cruelty upon the earth.
58:3 The wicked are strangers from the womb: even from the belly have they erred, and speak lies.
58:4 Their poison is even like the poison of a serpent; like the deaf adder that stoppeth his ear.
58:5 Which heareth not the voice of the enchanter, though he be most expert in charming.
58:6 Break their teeth, O God, in their mouths: break the jaws of the young lions, O Lord.
58:7 Let them melt like the waters, let them pass away; when he shooteth his arrows, let them be as broken.
58:8 Let them consume like a snail that melteth, and like the untimely fruit of a woman, that hath not seen the sun.
58:9 As raw flesh before your pots feel the fire of thorns: so let them carry them away as with a whirlwind in his wrath.
58:10 The righteous shall rejoice when he seeth the vengeance; he shall wash his feet in the blood of the wicked.
58:11 And men shall say, Verily there is fruit for the righteous; doubtless there is a God that judgeth in the earth.
