Psalm 58:6-8
New Living Translation
6 Break off their fangs, O God!
Smash the jaws of these lions, O Lord!
7 May they disappear like water into thirsty ground.
Make their weapons useless in their hands.[a]
8 May they be like snails that dissolve into slime,
like a stillborn child who will never see the sun.
