Bible in Basic English
"Let them be like an after-birth which is turned to water and comes to an end; like the fruit of a woman who gives birth before her time, let them not see the sun."
— Psalms 58:8, Bible in Basic English
“As a snail which melteth, let every one of them pass away: like the untimely birth of a woman, that they may not see the sun.”
“Let them be like a snail which melts and passes away, like the stillborn child, who has not seen the sun.”
“Behold they shall speak with their mouth, and a sword is in their lips: for who, say they, hath heard us?”
“As a snail which melteth, let every one of them pass away: like the untimely birth of a woman, that they may not see the sun.”
Who will not be moved by the voice of the wonder-worker, however great are his powers.
O God, let their teeth be broken in their mouths; let the great teeth of the young lions be pulled out, O Lord.
Let them be turned to liquid like the ever-flowing waters; let them be cut off like the grass by the way.
Let them be like an after-birth which is turned to water and comes to an end; like the fruit of a woman who gives birth before her time, let them not see the sun.
Before they are conscious of it, let them be cut down like thorns; let a strong wind take them away like waste growth.
The upright man will be glad when he sees their punishment; his feet will be washed in the blood of the evil-doer.
So that men will say, Truly there is a reward for righteousness; truly there is a God who is judge on the earth.
