I read Psalm 58 today and was struck by these verses. They sound like great lyrics for a death metal song. Here are verses 4-8:
4 Their venom is like the venom of a snake,
like that of a cobra that has stopped its ears,
5 that will not heed the tune of the charmer,
however skillful the enchanter may be.
6 Break the teeth in their mouths, O God;
LORD, tear out the fangs of those lions!
7 Let them vanish like water that flows away;
when they draw the bow, let their arrows fall short.
8 May they be like a slug that melts away as it moves along,
like a stillborn child that never sees the sun.
Can't you just hear the crunching chugga-chugga riffs now? Somebody call Zao or As I Lay Dying and let them know.
