Psalms 58:3

"No, in your heart you plot injustice. You measure out the violence of your hands in the earth."

Key Reflection

This verse reveals that even when outward actions appear just,内心的不义和暴力是显而易见的。它强调了人们内心深处的真实意图比外在行为更为重要,提醒我们外表可能掩盖真实的邪恶。

From the Scholars: Barnes' Notes

The wicked are estranged from the womb -The allusion here undoubtedly is to the persons principally referred to in the psalm - the enemies of David. But their conduct toward him suggests a more general reflection in regard to “all” the wicked as having the same characteristics. The psalmist, therefore, instead of confining his remarks to them, makes his observations general, on the principle that all wicked men have essentially the same character, and especially in respect to the thing here affirmed, that they go astray early; that they are apostate and alienated from God from their very birth.
