Break MY TEETH (BUT BE PRETTY ABOUT IT)

Never let it be said the Christian Book of Psalms is not a book of beauty.

Sit back, relax, and be prepared for pure poetical bliss:

"That thy foot may be dipped in the blood of thine enemies, and the tongue of thy dogs in the same.-- 68.23

"Happy shall he be, that taketh and dasheth thy little ones against the stones.-- 137.9

"Let his children be continually vagabonds, and beg: let them seek their bread also out of their desolate places.-- 109.10

"Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; thou shalt dash them in pieces.-- 2.9

"He teacheth my hands to war.-- 18.34

"The righteous shall rejoice when he seeth the vengeance: he shall wash his feet in the blood of the wicked.-- 58.10

"Let their eyes be darkened, that they see not; and make their loins continually to shake.-- 69.23

"To him that smote Egypt in their firstborn: for his mercy endureth for ever.-- 136.10 [“Huh?” Sound of Athana scratching her head]

And last but not least, My personal fave:

"Break their teeth, O God, in their mouth."-- 58.6
