2. No, in heart you work unrighteousness; On earth you weigh out the violence of your hands.
3. The wicked are estranged from the womb; These who speak lies go astray from birth.
4. They have venom like the venom of a serpent; Like a deaf cobra that stops up its ear,
5. So that it does not hear the voice of charmers, Or a skillful caster of spells.
6. O God, shatter their teeth in their mouth; Break out the fangs of the young lions, O Lord.
7. Let them flow away like water that runs off; When he aims his arrows, let them be as headless shafts.
8. Let them be as a snail which melts away as it goes along, Like the miscarriages of a woman which never see the sun.
