== Tehillim (Book of Psalms), Chapter 58 ==

<named id="1"/>1 For the Leader; Al-tashheth. A Psalm of David; Michtam.

<named id="2"/>2 Do ye indeed speak as a righteous company? Do ye judge with equity the sons of men?

<named id="3"/>3 Yea, in heart ye work wickedness; ye weigh out in the earth the violence of your hands.

<named id="4"/>4 The wicked are estranged from the womb; the speakers of lies go astray as soon as they are born.

<named id="5"/>5 Their venom is like the venom of a serpent; they are like the deaf asp that stoppeth her ear;

<named id="6"/>6 Which hearkeneth not to the voice of charmers, or of the most cunning binder of spells.

<named id="7"/>7 Break their teeth, O G-d, in their mouth; break out the cheek-teeth of the young lions, O HaShem.

<named id="8"/>8 Let them melt away as water that runneth apace; when he aimeth his arrows, let them be as though they were cut off.

<named id="9"/>9 Let them be as a snail which melteth and passeth away; like the untimely births of a woman, that have not seen the sun.

<named id="10"/>10 Before your pots can feel the thorns, He will sweep it away with a whirlwind, the raw and the burning alike.

<named id="11"/>11 The righteous shall rejoice when he seeth the vengeance; he shall wash his feet in the blood of the wicked.

<named id="12"/>12 And men shall say: 'Verily there is a reward for the righteous; verily there is a G-d that judgeth in the earth.'
