- 1. {To the chief Musician. 'Destroy not.' Of David. Michtam.}<br>
Is righteousness indeed silent? Do ye speak it? Do ye judge with equity, ye sons of men? - 2. Yea, in heart ye work wickedness; ye weigh out the violence of your hands in the earth.
- 3. The wicked go astray from the womb; they err as soon as they are born, speaking lies.
- 4. Their poison is like the poison of a serpent: [they are] like the deaf adder which stoppeth her ear;
- 5. Which doth not hearken to the voice of enchanters, of one charming ever so wisely.
- 6. O God, break their teeth in their mouth; break out the great teeth of the young lions, O Jehovah.
- 7. Let them melt away as waters that flow off; when he aimeth his arrows, let them be as blunted:
- 8. Let them be as a snail that melteth as it passeth away; [like] the untimely birth of a woman, let them not see the sun.
- 9. Before your pots feel the thorns, green or burning, -- they shall be whirled away.
- 10. The righteous shall rejoice when he seeth the vengeance; he shall wash his footsteps in the blood of the wicked:
- 11. And men shall say, Verily there is fruit for the righteous; verily there is a God that judgeth in the earth.
