Psalms 58

Berean Standard Bible
Clementine Vulgate, 1598
1Do you indeed speak justly, O rulers? Do you judge uprightly, O sons of men?
1In finem, ne disperdas. David in tituli inscriptionem, quando misit Saul et custodivit domum ejus ut eum interficeret.
2No, in your hearts you devise injustice; with your hands you mete out violence on the earth.
2[Eripe me de inimicis meis, Deus meus, et ab insurgentibus in me libera me.
3The wicked are estranged from the womb; the liars go astray from birth.
3Eripe me de operantibus iniquitatem, et de viris sanguinum salva me.
4Their venom is like the venom of a snake, like a cobra that shuts its ears,
4Quia ecce ceperunt animam meam; irruerunt in me fortes.
5refusing to hear the tune of the charmer who skillfully weaves his spell.
5Neque iniquitas mea, neque peccatum meum, Domine; sine iniquitate cucurri, et direxi.
6O God, shatter their teeth in their mouths; O LORD, tear out the fangs of the lions.
6Exsurge in occursum meum, et vide: et tu, Domine Deus virtutum, Deus Israël, intende ad visitandas omnes gentes: non miserearis omnibus qui operantur iniquitatem.
7May they vanish like water that runs off; when they draw the bow, may their arrows be blunted.
7Convertentur ad vesperam, et famem patientur ut canes: et circuibunt civitatem.
8Like a slug that dissolves in its slime, like a woman’s stillborn child, may they never see the sun.
8Ecce loquentur in ore suo, et gladius in labiis eorum: quoniam quis audivit?
9Before your pots can feel the burning thorns— whether green or dry— He will sweep them away.
9Et tu, Domine, deridebis eos; ad nihilum deduces omnes gentes.
10The righteous will rejoice when they see they are avenged; they will wash their feet in the blood of the wicked.
10Fortitudinem meam ad te custodiam, quia, Deus, susceptor meus es:
11Then men will say, “There is surely a reward for the righteous! There is surely a God who judges the earth!”
11Deus meus misericordia ejus præveniet me.
