Psalm 109:1-31 NASBS

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