Psalms 58

58
PSALM 58
1 To victory, lose thou not the sweet song, either the seemly psalm, of David. Forsooth if ye speak rightfulness [or rightwiseness] verily; ye sons of men, deem rightfully [or evenly].
2For in heart ye work wickedness in earth; your hands make ready unrightfulnesses [or unrightwisenesses].
3Sinners were made aliens from the womb; they erred from the womb, they spake false things.
4Strong vengeance is to them, by the likeness of a serpent; as of a deaf snake, and stopping his ears.
5Which shall not hear the voice of charmers; and of a venom-maker charming ever so wisely.
6God shall all-break the teeth of them in their mouth; the Lord shall break altogether the great teeth of lions.
7They shall come to nought, as water running away; he bent his bow, till they be made sick.
8As wax that floateth [or floweth] away, they shall be taken away; fire fell above, and they saw not the sun.
9Before that your thorns understood the rhamn, either thieve-thorn; he swalloweth them so in ire, as with living men.
10The just [or rightwise] man shall be glad, when he shall see vengeance; he shall wash his hands in the blood of a sinner.
11And a man shall say truly, For fruit is to a just [or rightwise] man; truly God is deeming them in earth.
