Psalms 58:5-11 Good News Bible Catholic Edition (GNBDK)

5. which does not hear the voice of the snake charmer,or the chant of the clever magician.

6. Break the teeth of these fierce lions, O God.

7. May they disappear like water draining away;may they be crushed like weeds on a path.

8. May they be like snails that dissolve into slime;may they be like a baby born dead that never sees the light.

9. Before they know it, they are cut down like weeds;in his fierce anger God will blow them awaywhile they are still living.

10. The righteous will be glad when they see sinners punished;they will wade through the blood of the wicked.

11. People will say, “The righteous are indeed rewarded;there is indeed a God who judges the world.”
