3 With your hands you have killed others.Your fingers are covered with blood from killing people.With your lips you have lied.With your tongue you say evil things.
4 People take each other to court unfairly.No one tells the truth in arguing his case.They accuse each other falsely and tell lies.They cause trouble and create more evil.
5 They hatch evil like eggs from poisonous snakes.If you eat one of those eggs, you will die.And if you break one open, a poisonous snake comes out.People tell lies as they would spin a spider’s web.
6 The webs they make cannot be used for clothes.You can’t cover yourself with those webs.The things they do are evil.They use their hands to hurt others.
7 They eagerly run to do evil.They are always ready to kill innocent people.They think evil thoughts.Everywhere they go they cause ruin and destruction.
8 They don’t know how to live in peace.There is no fairness in their lives.They are dishonest.Anyone who lives as they live will never have peace.
9 Fairness has gone far away.Goodness is nowhere to be found.We wait for the light, but there is only darkness now.We hope for a bright light, but all we have is darkness.
