I'll see your Psalm 58:3 and raise you one 1 Corinthians 14:20 In regard to evil be infants, but in your thinking be adults. Paul infers that infants are not associated with evil.

No, Paul is saying that infants are not associated with great knowledge. This ought to have been clear to you from his reference to "understanding". How you managed to miss it is... really not a great surprise.

Don't be greatly knowledgeable and familiar with the practices of Evil; be knowledgeable and familiar with Wisdom.

a. in regard to evil "be innocent toward it." or b. in regard to evil "go out and be grossly sinful." CHOOSE A or B. Which one do you think is the correct interpretation?

I can't choose between those two options, because yet again you are not even able to offer the correct interpretation.

It is not even available from your two choices.

The CORRECT interpretation, is the one I have posted above.

howbeit in malice be ye children (or NIV "in regard to evil be infants."

What a silly, avoidant interpretation. We'll do this one more time?

1. Paul says (fill in the blank): IN EVIL (MALICE) BE _______.

2. Answer the following:
a. Evil is Good.
or
b. Evil is Bad.

3. Paul is saying that children are commonly associated with:__________________
a. Innocence
b. Evil
c. Understanding (Ha!)

I anxiously await your inability to answer this without twisting it.
