Psalms 58:2 - Forerunner Commentary

Psalms 58:2

1 Do you indeed speak righteousness, you silent ones?
Do you judge uprightly, you sons of men?

2 No, in heart you work wickedness;
You weigh out the violence of your hands in the earth.

3 ^aThe wicked are estranged from the womb;
They go astray as soon as they are born, speaking lies.

4 ^aTheir poison is like the poison of a serpent;
They are like the deaf cobra that stops its ear,

5 Which will not ^aheed the voice of charmers,
Charming ever so skillfully.

6 ^aBreak¹ their teeth in their mouth, O God!
Break out the fangs of the young lions, O Lord!

7 ^aLet them flow away as waters which run continually;
When he bends his bow,
Let his arrows be as if cut in pieces.
