Context of Psalms 109:27
25I am an object of scorn to my accusers; when they see me, they shake their heads. 26Help me, O LORD my God; save me according to Your loving devotion. Let them know that this is Your hand, that You, O LORD, have done it. 28Though they curse, You will bless. When they rise up, they will be put to shame, but Your servant will rejoice. 29May my accusers be clothed with disgrace; may they wear their shame like a robe.
