Psalm 58:8

Berean Standard Bible (BSB)

Like a slug that dissolves in its slime, like a woman’s stillborn child, may they never see the sun.

In context

6 O God, shatter their teeth in their mouths; O LORD, tear out the fangs of the lions.

7 May they vanish like water that runs off; when they draw the bow, may their arrows be blunted.

8 Like a slug that dissolves in its slime, like a woman’s stillborn child, may they never see the sun.

9 Before your pots can feel the burning thorns— whether green or dry— He will sweep them away.

10 The righteous will rejoice when they see they are avenged; they will wash their feet in the blood of the wicked.
