\d A psalm written by David for the choir director, to be sung using the tune "Do not destroy."
|
|
|
|
|
\q1
|
|
|
|
|
\v 1 When you rulers speak, you never say what is right;
|
|
|
|
|
\q2 you people never justly decide disputes.
|
|
|
|
|
\q1
|
|
|
|
|
\v 2 No, in your inner beings you think only about doing what is wrong,
|
|
|
|
|
\q2 and you commit violent crimes everywhere in this land of Israel.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
|
|
|
\q1
|
|
|
|
|
\v 3 Wicked people do wrong things and tell lies from the time that they are born.
|
|
|
|
|
\q1
|
|
|
|
|
\v 4 What wicked people say injures people like the venom of a snake.
|
|
|
|
|
\q2 They refuse to listen to commands; it is as though they were deaf cobras.
|
|
|
|
|
\q
|
|
|
|
|
\v 5 As a result, like a snake that does not respond when a charmer plays a flute or when someone sings magic songs,
|
|
|
|
|
\q2 they do not pay attention when others rebuke them.

\q1
|
|
|
|
|
\v 6 God, as for these enemies who want to attack me like young lions,
|
|
|
|
|
\q2 break the teeth in their mouths!
|
|
|
|
|
\q1
|
|
|
|
|
\v 7 Cause them to disappear as water disappears in dry ground!
|
|
|
|
|
\q2 Cause the arrows that they shoot to have no heads!
|
|
|
|
|
\q1
|
|
|
|
|
\v 8 Cause them to become like snails that disappear in the slime;
|
|
|
|
|
\q2 cause them to be like a baby that is born dead!

|
|
|
\q1
|
|
|
|
|
\v 9 I hope that you will get rid of them
|
|
|
|
|
\q2 as fast as thornbushes are blown away after they are cut.
|
|
|
|
|
\q1
|
|
|
|
|
\v 10 People who do what is right will rejoice when they see God punish the wicked people;
|
|
|
|
|
\q2 they will wash their feet in the blood of wicked people.
|
|
|
|
|
\q1
|
|
|
|
|
\v 11 Then people will say, "It is true that there is a reward for righteous people;
|
|
|
|
|
\q2 and there is indeed a God who judges people justly here on the earth!"
