Psalms 109:7-15

7When he is judged, let him 1come forth guilty, And let his 2prayer become sin.8Let 3his days be few; Let 4another take his office.9Let his 5children be fatherless And his 6wife a widow.10Let his 7children wander about and beg; And let them 8seek sustenance 9far from their ruined homes.11Let 10the creditor 11seize all that he has, And let 12strangers plunder the product of his labor.12Let there be none to 13 14extend lovingkindness to him, Nor 15any to be gracious to his fatherless children.13Let his 16posterity be 17cut off; In a following generation let their 18name be blotted out.

14Let 19the iniquity of his fathers be remembered 20before the Lord, And do not let the sin of his mother be 21blotted out.15Let 22them be before the Lord continually, That He may 23cut off their memory from the earth;
