109:1 |
{To the chief Musician. Of David. A Psalm.} O God of my praise, be not silent:
|
109:2 |
For the mouth of the wicked [man] and the mouth of deceit are opened against me: they have spoken against me with a lying tongue,
|
109:3 |
And with words of hatred have they encompassed me; and they fight against me without a cause.
|
109:4 |
For my love they are mine adversaries; but I [give myself unto] prayer.
|
109:5 |
And they have rewarded me evil for good, and hatred for my love.
|
109:6 |
Set a wicked [man] over him, and let [the] adversary stand at his right hand;
|
109:7 |
When he shall be judged, let him go out guilty, and let his prayer become sin;
|
109:8 |
Let his days be few, let another take his office;
|
109:9 |
Let his sons be fatherless, and his wife a widow;
|
109:10 |
Let his sons be vagabonds and beg, and let them seek [their bread] far from their desolate places;
|
109:11 |
Let the usurer cast the net over all that he hath, and let strangers despoil his labour;
|
109:12 |
Let there be none to extend kindness unto him, neither let there be any to favour his fatherless children;
|
109:13 |
Let his posterity be cut off; in the generation following let their name be blotted out:
|
109:14 |
Let the iniquity of his fathers be remembered with Jehovah, and let not the sin of his mother be blotted out;
|
109:15 |
Let them be before Jehovah continually, that he may cut off the memory of them from the earth:
|
109:16 |
Because he remembered not to shew kindness, but persecuted the afflicted and needy man, and the broken in heart, to slay him.
|
109:17 |
And he loved cursing; so let it come unto him. And he delighted not in blessing; and let it be far from him.
|
109:18 |
And he clothed himself with cursing like his vestment; so let it come into his bowels like water, and like oil into his bones;
|
109:19 |
Let it be unto him as a garment with which he covereth himself, and for a girdle wherewith he is constantly girded.
|
109:20 |
Let this be the reward of mine adversaries from Jehovah, and of them that speak evil against my soul.
|
109:21 |
But do *thou* for me, Jehovah, Lord, for thy name's sake; because thy loving-kindness is good, deliver me:
|
109:22 |
For I am afflicted and needy, and my heart is wounded within me.
|
109:23 |
I am gone like a shadow when it lengtheneth; I am tossed about like the locust;
|
109:24 |
My knees are failing through fasting, and my flesh hath lost its fatness;
|
109:25 |
And I am become a reproach unto them; [when] they look upon me they shake their heads.
|
109:26 |
Help me, Jehovah my God; save me according to thy loving-kindness:
|
109:27 |
That they may know that this is thy hand; that *thou*, Jehovah, hast done it.
|
109:28 |
Let *them* curse, but bless *thou*; when they rise up, let them be ashamed, and let thy servant rejoice.
|
109:29 |
Let mine adversaries be clothed with confusion, and let them cover themselves with their shame as with a mantle.
|
109:30 |
I will greatly celebrate Jehovah with my mouth; yea, I will praise him among the multitude.
|
109:31 |
For he standeth at the right hand of the needy, to save him from those that judge his soul.
