Salmos 58
La Palabra (España)
Salmo 58 (57)
Hay un Dios que imparte justicia
58 Al maestro del coro. Según “No destruyas”. Poema de David.
2 Jueces, ¿en verdad proclamáis la justicia
y juzgáis a las personas con rectitud?
3 No; en vuestro interior tramáis el mal
y propagáis la violencia en esta tierra.
4 Los malvados desde que nacen están perdidos,
los falsos desde su nacimiento se extravían.
5 Es su veneno como el veneno de la serpiente,
son como víbora sorda que tapa sus oídos
6 para no oír la voz de los encantadores,
ni la del hechicero experto en hechizos.
7 Oh Dios, rompe los dientes de su boca,
destroza, Señor, las fauces de estos leones.
8 Que se evaporen como agua que se diluye,
que disparen flechas que no puedan clavarse;
9 que sean cual babosa que al andar se deshace,
como aborto de mujer que no pudo ver el sol;
10 que antes que vuestras ollas noten el fuego
vivo y crepitante, lo apague un vendaval.
11 Se alegrará el justo cuando vea la venganza
y bañará sus pies en la sangre del malvado.
12 Y todos dirán: “El justo tiene su premio,
hay un Dios que imparte justicia en la tierra”.
Psaltaren 58
Svenska 1917
58 För sångmästaren; »Fördärva icke»; av David; en sång.
2 Talen I väl i eder stumhet vad rättfärdigt är? Dömen I såsom rätt är, I människors barn?
3 Nej, i hjärtat uppgören I onda anslag; I vägen ut i landet edra händers våld.
4 De ogudaktiga äro avfälliga allt ifrån modersskötet; de lögnaktiga fara vilse ända från sin moders liv.
5 Gift är i dem, likt ormens gift; en döv huggorm likna de, en som tillstoppar sitt öra,
6 så att han icke hör tjusarnas röst, icke den förfarne besvärjarens.
7 Gud, krossa tänderna i deras mun; bryt ut, o HERRE, de unga lejonens kindtänder.
8 Låt dem bliva till intet, likasom vatten som förrinner. När någon skjuter sina pilar, blive de såsom utan udd.
9 Må han vara lik snigeln, som upplöses och förgås, lik en kvinnas foster, som ej fick skåda solen.
10 Förrän edra grytor hava hunnit märka bränslet, och medan köttet ännu är rått, skall en glödvind rycka bort det.
11 Den rättfärdige skall glädja sig, när han skådar hämnden, han skall två sina fötter i den ogudaktiges blod.
12 Och människorna skola säga: »Ja, den rättfärdige får sin lön; ja, det finnes en Gud som dömer på jorden.»
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)

Psalm 58
King James Version
58 Do ye indeed speak righteousness, O congregation? do ye judge uprightly, O ye sons of men?
2 Yea, in heart ye work wickedness; ye weigh the violence of your hands in the earth.
3 The wicked are estranged from the womb: they go astray as soon as they be born, speaking lies.
4 Their poison is like the poison of a serpent: they are like the deaf adder that stoppeth her ear;
5 Which will not hearken to the voice of charmers, charming never so wisely.
6 Break their teeth, O God, in their mouth: break out the great teeth of the young lions, O Lord.
7 Let them melt away as waters which run continually: when he bendeth his bow to shoot his arrows, let them be as cut in pieces.
8 As a snail which melteth, let every one of them pass away: like the untimely birth of a woman, that they may not see the sun.
9 Before your pots can feel the thorns, he shall take them away as with a whirlwind, both living, and in his wrath.
10 The righteous shall rejoice when he seeth the vengeance: he shall wash his feet in the blood of the wicked.
11 So that a man shall say, Verily there is a reward for the righteous: verily he is a God that judgeth in the earth.
Psalm 58
New King James Version
The Just Judgment of the Wicked
To the Chief Musician. Set to [a]“Do Not Destroy.” A Michtam of David.
58 Do you indeed speak righteousness, you silent ones?
Do you judge uprightly, you sons of men?
2 No, in heart you work wickedness;
You weigh out the violence of your hands in the earth.
3 (A)The wicked are estranged from the womb;
They go astray as soon as they are born, speaking lies.
4 (B)Their poison is like the poison of a serpent;
They are like the deaf cobra that stops its ear,
5 Which will not (C)heed the voice of charmers,
Charming ever so skillfully.
6 (D)Break[b] their teeth in their mouth, O God!
Break out the fangs of the young lions, O Lord!
7 (E)Let them flow away as waters which run continually;
When he bends his bow,
Let his arrows be as if cut in pieces.
8 Let them be like a snail which melts away as it goes,
(F)Like a stillborn child of a woman, that they may not see the sun.
9 Before your (G)pots can feel the burning thorns,
He shall take them away (H)as with a whirlwind,
As in His living and burning wrath.
10 The righteous shall rejoice when he sees the (I)vengeance;
(J)He shall wash his feet in the blood of the wicked,
11 (K)So that men will say,
“Surely there is a reward for the righteous;
Surely He is God who (L)judges in the earth.”
