Psalm 58:7-9
New Living Translation
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.
9 God will sweep them away, both young and old,
faster than a pot heats over burning thorns.
Footnotes
- 58:7 Or Let them be trodden down and wither like grass. The meaning of the Hebrew is uncertain.
