1 Do you rulers ever give a just decision?Do you judge everyone fairly?
2 No! You think only of the evil you can do,and commit crimes of violence in the land.
3 Evildoers go wrong all their lives;they tell lies from the day they are born.
4 They are full of poison like snakes;they stop up their ears like a deaf cobra,
5 which does not hear the voice of the snake charmer,or the chant of the clever magician.
