Psalms 58:1-9

58:1

<
<To the chief Musician <05329> (8764)_,

Altaschith
<0516> (8686)_,

Michtam
<04387>

of David
<01732>.>>

Do ye indeed
<0552>

speak
<01696> (8762)

righteousness
<06664>_,

O congregation
<0482>_?

do ye judge
<08199> (8799)

uprightly
<04339>_,

O ye sons
<01121>

of men
<0120>_?

{Altaschith...: or, Destroy not} {Michtam: or, A golden Psalm}

58:2

Yea, in heart
<03820>

ye work
<06466> (8799)

wickedness
<05766>_;

ye weigh
<06424> (8762)

the violence
<02555>

of your hands
<03027>

in the earth
<0776>_.

58:3

The wicked
<07563>

are estranged
<02114> (8804)

from the womb
<07358>_:

they go astray
<08582> (8804)

as soon as they be born
<0990>_,

speaking
<01696> (8802)

lies
<03577>_.

{as soon...: Heb. from the belly}

58:4

Their poison
<02534>

[is] like
<01823>

the poison
<02534>

of a serpent
<05175>_:

[they are] like the deaf
<02795>

adder
<06620>

[that] stoppeth
<0331> (8686)

her ear
<0241>_;

{like the poison: Heb. according to the likeness, etc} {adder: or, asp}

58:5

Which will not hearken
<08085> (8799)

to the voice
<06963>

of charmers
<03907> (8764)_,

charming
<02266> (8802) <02267>

never so wisely
<02449> (8794)_.

{charming...: or, be the charmer never so cunning}

58:6

Break
<02040> (8798)

their teeth
<08127>_,

O God
<0430>_,

in their mouth
<06310>_:

break out
<05422> (8800)

the great teeth
<04459>

of the young lions
<03715>_,

O LORD
<03068>_.

58:7

Let them melt away
<03988> (8735)

as waters
<04325>

[which] run continually
<01980> (8691)_:

[when] he bendeth
<01869> (8799)

[his bow to shoot] his arrows
<02671>_,

let them be as cut in pieces
<04135> (8709)_.

58:8

As a snail
<07642>

[which] melteth
<08557>_,

let [every one of them] pass away
<01980> (8799)_:

[like] the untimely birth
<05309>

of a woman
<0802>_,

[that] they may not see
<02372> (8804)

the sun
<08121>_.

58:9

Before your pots
<05518>

can feel
<0995> (8799)

the thorns
<0329>_,

he shall take them away as with a whirlwind
<08175> (8799)_,

both living
<02416>_,

and in [his] wrath
<02740>_.

{both...: Heb. as living as wrath}
