Psalm 58:5 Context

◄ Psalm 58:5 ►

refusing to hear the tune of the charmer who skillfully weaves his spell.

Context

5So that it does not hear the voice of charmers,
Or a skillful caster of spells.

6O God, shatter their teeth in their mouth;
Break out the fangs of the young lions, O LORD.

7Let them flow away like water that runs off;
When he aims his arrows, let them be as headless shafts.

8Let them be as a snail which melts away as it goes along,
Like the miscarriages of a woman which never see the sun.

9Before your pots can feel the fire of thorns
He will sweep them away with a whirlwind, the green and the burning alike.

10The righteous will rejoice when he sees the vengeance;
He will wash his feet in the blood of the wicked.

11And men will say, “Surely there is a reward for the righteous;
Surely there is a God who judges on earth!”
