Psalms 109:6-20

6AppointH6485 a wickedH7563 personH7563 overH5921 him, And may an 12accuserH7854 standH5975 at his rightH3225 handH3225.7When he is judgedH8199, may he 3comeH3318 outH3318 guiltyH7563, And may his 4prayerH8605 becomeH1961 sinH2401.8May 5his daysH3117 be fewH4592; May 6anotherH312 takeH3947 his officeH6486.9May his 7childrenH1121 be fatherlessH3490, And his 8wifeH802 a widowH490.10May his 9childrenH1121 wanderH5128 aboutH5128 and begH7592; And may they 10seekH1875 sustenance 11far from their ruinedH2723 homesH2723.11May 12the creditorH5383 13seizeH5367 everythingH3605 that he has, And may 14strangersH2114 plunderH962 the productH3018 ofH3018 his laborH3018.12May there be noneH408 to 1516extendH4900 kindnessH2617 to him, NorH408 17any to beH2603 graciousH2603 to his fatherlessH3490 childrenH3490.13May his 18descendantsH319 be 19eliminatedH3772; May their 20nameH8034 be wipedH4229 outH4229 in a followingH312 generationH1755.

14May 21the guiltH5771 of his fathersH1 be rememberedH2142 22beforeH413 the LordH3068, And do not let the sinH2403 of his motherH517 be 23wipedH4229 outH4229.15May 24they be beforeH5048 the LordH3068 continuallyH8548, So that He may 25eliminateH3772 their memoryH2143 from the earthH776;16BecauseH3282 he did not rememberH2142 to showH6213 mercyH2617, But persecutedH7291 the 26afflictedH6041 and needyH34 personH376, And the 27despondentH3512 in heartH3824, to 28putH4191 them toH4191 deathH4191.17He also lovedH157 cursingH7045, so 29it cameH935 to him; And he did not delightH2654 in blessingH1293, so it wasH7368 farH7368 from him.18But he 30clothedH3847 himself with cursingH7045 as with his garmentH4055, And it 31enteredH935 32his bodyH7130 like waterH4325, And like oilH8081 into his bonesH6106.19May it be to him as 33a garmentH899 with which he coversH5844 himself, And as a beltH4206 which he constantlyH8548 34wearsH2296 aroundH2296 himself.20May thisH2088 be the 35rewardH6468 of my accusersH7853 from the LordH3068, And of those who 36speakH1696 evilH7451 againstH5921 my soulH5315.
