³⁵ They conceive trouble and give birth to evil.
    Their womb produces deceit.”

¹⁴ The wicked conceive evil;
    they are pregnant with trouble
    and give birth to lies.

¹³ “But you have cultivated wickedness
    and harvested a thriving crop of sins.
You have eaten the fruit of lies—
    trusting in your military might,
believing that great armies
    could make your nation safe.

⁴ No one cares about being fair and honest.
    The people’s lawsuits are based on lies.
They conceive evil deeds
    and then give birth to sin.
⁵ They hatch deadly snakes
    and weave spiders’ webs.
Whoever eats their eggs will die;
    whoever cracks them will hatch a viper.
