Psalms 109:9-20

9Let his children be fatherless, and his wife a widow.
10Let his children be vagabonds, and beg; and let them seek their bread out of their desolate places.
11Let the extortioner catch all that he hath; and let strangers make spoil of his labour.
12Let there be none to extend mercy unto him; neither let there be any to have pity on his fatherless children.
13Let his posterity be cut off; in the generation following let their name be blotted out.
14Let the iniquity of his fathers be remembered with the LORD; and let not the sin of his mother be blotted out.
15Let them be before the LORD continually, that he may cut off the memory of them from the earth.
16Because that he remembered not to shew mercy, but persecuted the poor and needy man, and the broken in heart, to slay them.
17Yea, he loved cursing, and it came unto him; and he delighted not in blessing, and it was far from him.
18He clothed himself also with cursing as with his garment, and it came into his inward parts like water, and like oil into his bones. Let it be unto him as the raiment
19wherewith he covereth himself, and for the girdle wherewith he is girded continually.
20This is the reward of mine adversaries from the LORD, and of them that speak evil against my soul.
