1. To the Chief Musician. Set to 'Do Not Destroy.' A Michtam of David. 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 the 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 which melts away as it goes, Like a stillborn child of a woman, that they may not see the sun. | |
9. Before your pots can feel the burning thorns, 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 the wicked, | |
11. So that men will say, "Surely there is a reward for the righteous; Surely He is God who judges in the earth." |
