58:1
 [For the choirmaster Tune: 'Do not destroy' Of David In a quiet voice] Divine as you are, do you truly give upright verdicts? do you judge fairly the children of Adam?

58:2
 No! You devise injustice in your hearts, and with your hands you administer tyranny on the earth.

58:3
 Since the womb they have gone astray, the wicked, on the wrong path since their birth, with their unjust verdicts.

58:4
 They are poisonous as any snake, deaf as an adder that blocks its ears

58:5
 so as not to hear the magician's music, however skilful his spells.

58:6
 God, break the teeth in their mouths, snap off the fangs of these young lions, Yahweh.

58:7
 May they drain away like water running to waste, may they wither like trampled grass,

58:8
 like the slug that melts as it moves or a still-born child that never sees the sun.

58:9
 Before they sprout thorns like the bramble, green or burnt up, may retribution whirl them away.

58:10
 The upright will rejoice to see vengeance done, and will bathe his feet in the blood of the wicked.

58:11
 'So', people will say, 'the upright does have a reward; there is a God to dispense justice on earth.'
