Psalm 58:8-10
Contemporary English Version

8 Let them dry up like snails
or be like a child that dies
    before seeing the sun.
9 Wipe them out quicker
than a pot can be heated
    by setting thorns on fire.[a]

10 Good people will be glad
when they see the wicked
    getting what they deserve,
and they will wash their feet
    in their enemies' blood.
