Psalms 58:4


← Psalms 58:3 Psalms 58:4 (KJV) Psalms 58:5 →
The wicked are estranged from the womb: they go astray as soon as they be born, speaking lies.
Their poison is like the poison of a serpent: they are like the deaf adder that stoppeth her ear;
Which will not hearken to the voice of charmers, charming never so wisely.
