And your fingers with wrongdoing;
Your lips have spoken (B)deceit,
Your tongue mutters wickedness.

They (E)trust in confusion and speak lies;
They (F)conceive trouble and give birth to disaster.
They hatch vipers’ eggs and (G)weave the spider’s web;
The one who eats of their eggs dies,
And from what is crushed, a snake breaks out.
