58c. Do You, O Men, Speak Righteousness

1 Do you, O men, speak righteousness
And upright judgment seek?
No, in your hearts is wickedness,
And in your hands deceit.

2 The wicked, from their earliest days,
In sin are gone astray,
With errant heart, in foolish pride,
From wisdom turned away.

3 The God of vengeance will destroy
The wicked from His sight;
The LORD will bring to nought their pow'r,
And scatter all their might.

4 The good shall triumph and rejoice,
And this shall be confessed;
On earth the God of justice reigns,
And righteousness is blessed.
