Psalm 58

YOu that in counsel sit, do you
consult of what is just?
And justly judge the sons of men,
according to your trust?
Yea, in your hearts you wickednesse
contrive, and plot, and then
Out of the seats of justice weigh
out violence to men.

The wicked from the very womb
erre out of the right way,
Yea, from the birth in speaking lies,
they straightway go astray.
In them the poison you may see
of serpents to appear,
And like the adder deaf they are,
which fast doth stop her ear,

From hearkning to the charmers voice
at all, although he charm
Never so wisely, to inchant
her that she do no harm.
Break thou their teeth, Lord, in their mouth,
wherewith they hurt so sore,
Yea, the great teeth break out, O God,
of young lions that roar.

So let them slide as waters melt,
that run continually,
Arrows which they prepare, let them
as cut in pieces lie.
So let them passe away, as snails
to nothing melted bee,
As an untimely birth, that they
the Sun may never see.

Before your brambles prickles hurt,
he takes them hence in haste,
Alive, and in his wrath he takes
them with his whirlwinds blast.
The righteous shall rejoice, when he
this vengeance just shall see,
And in the bloud of wicked men
his own feet washt shall bee.

Then shall men say, surely there is
for righteous men reward,
Surely he is a God that doth
the earth judge and regard.
