Psalms 109

For the choir director. A Psalm of David.

1

O  aGodh430 of my praiseh8416,  bDo not be silenth2790b!

2

For they have openedh6605a the  1wickedh7563 and  adeceitfulh4820 mouthh6310 againsth5921 me; They have spokenh1696  2againsth854 me with a  blyingh8267 tongueh3956.

3

They have also surroundedh5437 me with wordsh1697 of hatredh8135, And foughth3898a against me  awithouth2600 causeh2600.

4

In returnh8478  afor my loveh160 they acth7853 as my accusersh7853; But  bI am in prayerh8605.

5

Thus they have  1 arepaidh7760 me evilh7463a for goodh2899b And  bhatredh8135 for my loveh160.

6

Appointh6485 a wickedh7563 manh7563 overh5921 him, And let an  1 aaccuserh7854 standh5975 at his righth3225 handh3225.

7

When he is judgedh8199, let him  acomeh3318 forthh3318 guiltyh7563, And let his  bprayerh8605 becomeh1961 sinh2401.

8

Let  ahis daysh3117 be fewh4592; Let  banotherh312 takeh3947 his officeh6486.

9

Let his  achildrenh1121 be fatherlessh3490 And his  bwifeh802 a widowh490.

10

Let his  achildrenh1121 wanderh5128 about and begh7592; And let them  bseekh1875 sustenance  1far from their ruinedh2723 homesh2723.

11

Let  athe creditorh5383  1seizeh5367 allh3605 that he has, And let  bstrangersh2114a plunderh962 the producth3018 of his laborh3018.

12

Let there be noneh408 to  1 aextendh4900 lovingkindnessh2617a to him, Norh408  bany to be gracioush2603a to his fatherlessh3490 childrenh3490.

13

Let his  aposterityh319 be  1cuth3772 offh3772; In a followingh312 generationh1755 let their  bnameh8034 be blottedh4229a out.

14

Let  athe iniquityh5771 of his fathersh1 be rememberedh2142  1beforeh413 the LORDh3068, And do not let the sinh2403b of his motherh517 be  bblottedh4229a out.

15

Let  athem be beforeh5048 the LORDh3068 continuallyh8548, That He may  bcuth3772 offh3772 their memoryh2143 from the earthh776;

16

Becauseh3282 he did not rememberh2142 to showh6213a lovingkindnessh2617a, But persecutedh7291 the  aafflictedh6041 and needyh34 manh376, And the  bdespondenth3512a in hearth3824, to  cputh4191 them to deathh4191.

17

He also lovedh157 cursingh7045, so  ait cameh935 to him; And he did not delighth2654a in blessingh1293, so it was farh7368 from him.

18

But he  aclothedh3847 himself with cursingh7045 as with his garmenth4055, And it  benteredh935 into  1his bodyh7130 like waterh4325 And like oilh8081 into his bonesh6106.

19

Let it be to him as  aa garmenth899b with which he coversh5844a himself, And for a belth4206a with which he constantlyh8548  bgirdsh2296 himself.

20

 1Let thish384 be the  arewardh6468 of my accusersh7853 from the LORDh3068, And of those who  bspeakh1696 evilh7451b againsth5921 my soulh5315.

21

But You, O  1GODh3068, the Lordh136, dealh6213a kindly with me  afor Your name'sh8034 sakeh4616; Becauseh3588  bYour lovingkindnessh2617a is goodh2896a, deliverh5337 me;

22

For  aI am afflictedh6041 and needyh34, And  1my hearth3820 is  bwoundedh2490a withinh7130 me.

23

I am passingh1980  alike a shadowh6738 when it lengthensh5186; I am shakenh5287 offh5287  blike the locusth697.

24

My  akneesh1290  1are weakh3782 from  bfastingh6685, And my fleshh1320 has grownh3584 leanh3584, withouth4480 fatnessh8081.

25

I also have becomeh1961 a  areproachh2781 to them; When they seeh7200 me, they  bwagh5128 their headh7218.

26

 aHelph5826 me, O LORDh3068 my Godh430; Saveh3467 me according to Your lovingkindnessh2617a.

27

 1And let them  aknowh3045 that thish384 is Your handh3027; You, LORDh3068, have doneh6213a it.

28

 aLet them curseh7043, but You blessh1288; When they ariseh6965, they shall be ashamedh954, But Your  bservanth5650 shall be gladh8055.

29

 1Let  amy accusersh7853 be clothedh3847 with dishonorh3639, And  2let them  bcoverh5844a themselves with their own shameh1322 as with a robeh4598.

30

With my mouthh6310 I will giveh3034 thanksh3034 abundantlyh3966 to the LORDh3068; And in the midsth8432 of manyh7227a  aI will praiseh1984b Him.

31

For He standsh5975  aat the righth3225 handh3225 of the needyh34, To saveh3467 him from those who  bjudgeh8199 his soulh5315.
