109:1 |
O God of my praise, Do not be silent!
|
109:2 |
For they have opened the wicked and deceitful mouth against me; They have spoken against me with a lying tongue.
|
109:3 |
They have also surrounded me with words of hatred, And fought against me without cause.
|
109:4 |
In return for my love they act as my accusers; But I am in prayer.
|
109:5 |
Thus they have repaid me evil for good And hatred for my love.
|
109:6 |
Appoint a wicked man over him, And let an accuser stand at his right hand.
|
109:7 |
When he is judged, let him come forth guilty, And let his prayer become sin.
|
109:8 |
Let his days be few; Let another take his office.
|
109:9 |
Let his children be fatherless And his wife a widow.
|
109:10 |
Let his children wander about and beg; And let them seek sustenance far from their ruined homes.
|
109:11 |
Let the creditor seize all that he has, And let strangers plunder the product of his labor.
|
109:12 |
Let there be none to extend lovingkindness to him, Nor any to be gracious to his fatherless children.
|
109:13 |
Let his posterity be cut off; In a following generation let their name be blotted out.
|
109:14 |
Let the iniquity of his fathers be remembered before the Lord, And do not let the sin of his mother be blotted out.
|
109:15 |
Let them be before the Lord continually, That He may cut off their memory from the earth;
|
109:16 |
Because he did not remember to show lovingkindness, But persecuted the afflicted and needy man, And the despondent in heart, to put them to death.
|
109:17 |
He also loved cursing, so it came to him; And he did not delight in blessing, so it was far from him.
|
109:18 |
But he clothed himself with cursing as with his garment, And it entered into his body like water And like oil into his bones.
|
109:19 |
Let it be to him as a garment with which he covers himself, And for a belt with which he constantly girds himself.
|
109:20 |
Let this be the reward of my accusers from the Lord, And of those who speak evil against my soul.
|
109:21 |
But You, O God, the Lord, deal kindly with me for Your name's sake; Because Your lovingkindness is good, deliver me;
|
109:22 |
For I am afflicted and needy, And my heart is wounded within me.
|
109:23 |
I am passing like a shadow when it lengthens; I am shaken off like the locust.
|
109:24 |
My knees are weak from fasting, And my flesh has grown lean, without fatness.
|
109:25 |
I also have become a reproach to them; When they see me, they wag their head.
|
109:26 |
Help me, O Lord my God; Save me according to Your lovingkindness.
|
109:27 |
And let them know that this is Your hand; You, Lord, have done it.
|
109:28 |
Let them curse, but You bless; When they arise, they shall be ashamed, But Your servant shall be glad.
|
109:29 |
Let my accusers be clothed with dishonor, And let them cover themselves with their own shame as with a robe.
|
109:30 |
With my mouth I will give thanks abundantly to the Lord; And in the midst of many I will praise Him.
|
109:31 |
For He stands at the right hand of the needy, To save him from those who judge his soul.
