Psalm 57:2-4
Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

2 If in very deed you speak justice: judge right things, ye sons of men.

3 For in your heart you work iniquity: your hands forge injustice in the earth.

4 The wicked are alienated from the womb; they have gone astray from the womb: they have spoken false things.
