58:1
Do you rulers ever give a just decision? Do you judge everyone fairly? |
58:2
No! You think only of the evil you can do, and commit crimes of violence in
the land. |
58:3
Evildoers go wrong all their lives; they tell lies from the day they are
born. |
58:4
They are full of poison like snakes; they stop up their ears like a deaf
cobra, |
58:5
which does not hear the voice of the snake charmer, or the chant of the
clever magician. |
58:6
Break the teeth of these fierce lions, O God. |
58:7
May they disappear like water draining away; may they be crushed like weeds
on a path. |
58:8
May they be like snails that dissolve into slime; may they be like a baby
born dead that never sees the light. |
58:9
Before they know it, they are cut down like weeds; in his fierce anger God
will blow them away while they are still living. |
58:10
The righteous will be glad when they see sinners punished; they will wade
through the blood of the wicked. |
58:11
People will say, "The righteous are indeed rewarded; there is indeed a
God who judges the world." |
