Mga Awit 58
Magandang Balita Biblia
Panalangin para Parusahan ng Diyos ang Masasama
Katha ni David upang awitin ng Punong Mang-aawit: ayon sa tono ng “Huwag Mong Sirain”. Isang Miktam.[a]
58 Tama ba ang hatol ng mga pinuno?
Ang hatol ba ninyo'y pantay at totoo?
2 Hindi! Pagkat ang inyong binabalangkas
pawang karahasa't gawaing di tama.
3 Iyang masasama sa mula't mula pa,
mula sa pagsilang ay sinungaling na.
4 Sila'y makamandag, ahas ang kaparis,
katulad ay kobrang ang tainga ay may takip;
5 itong mga tawak at salamangkero,
di niya dinirinig, hindi pansin ito.
6 Bungiin ang ngipin nila, O Panginoon,
alisin ang pangil niyong mga leon.
7 Itapon mo silang katulad ng tubig,
sa daa'y duruging parang mga yagit.
8 Parang mga susô, sa dumi magwakas,
batang di nabuhay sa sangmaliwanag.
9 Puputulin silang hindi nila batid,
itatapon ng Diyos sa tindi ng galit;
bagaman buháy pa'y iyon na ang sinapit.
10 Ang mga matuwid nama'y magagalak kung ang masasama'y parusahang ganap;
pagkakita nila sa dugong dumanak, hindi mangingiming doon na tumahak.
11 Saka sasabihin ng mga nilalang, “Ang mga matuwid ay gantimpalaan;
tunay ngang may Diyos, na hukom ng lahat!”

Psalm 58
New International Version
Psalm 58[a]
For the director of music. To the tune of “Do Not Destroy.” Of David. A miktam.[b]
1 Do you rulers indeed speak justly?(A)
Do you judge people with equity?
2 No, in your heart you devise injustice,(B)
and your hands mete out violence on the earth.(C)
3 Even from birth the wicked go astray;
from the womb they are wayward, spreading lies.
4 Their venom is like the venom of a snake,(D)
like that of a cobra that has stopped its ears,
5 that will not heed(E) the tune of the charmer,(F)
however skillful the enchanter may be.
6 Break the teeth in their mouths, O God;(G)
Lord, tear out the fangs of those lions!(H)
7 Let them vanish like water that flows away;(I)
when they draw the bow, let their arrows fall short.(J)
8 May they be like a slug that melts away as it moves along,(K)
like a stillborn child(L) that never sees the sun.
9 Before your pots can feel the heat of the thorns(M)—
whether they be green or dry—the wicked will be swept away.[c](N)
10 The righteous will be glad(O) when they are avenged,(P)
when they dip their feet in the blood of the wicked.(Q)
11 Then people will say,
“Surely the righteous still are rewarded;(R)
surely there is a God who judges the earth.”(S)
