For the end. Destroy not: by David, for a memorial.
—
If ye do indeed speak righteousness, [then] do ye judge rightly, ye sons of men.
—
For ye work iniquities in [your] hearts in the earth: your hands plot unrighteousness.
—
Sinners have gone astray from the womb: they go astray from the belly: they speak lies.
—
Their venom is like [that] of a serpent; as [that] of a deaf asp, and that stops her ears;
—
which will not hear the voice of charmers, nor [heed] the charm prepared skilfully by the wise.
—
God has crushed their teeth in their mouth: God has broken the cheek-teeth of the lions.
—
They shall utterly pass away like water running through: he shall bend his bow till they shall fail.
—
They shall be destroyed as melted wax: the fire has fallen and they have not seen the sun.
—
Before your thorns feel the white thorn, he shall swallow you up as living, as in his wrath.
—
The righteous shall rejoice when he sees the vengeance of the ungodly: he shall wash his hands in the blood of the sinner.
—
And a man shall say, Verily then there is a reward for the righteous: verily there is a God that judges them in the earth.
