Psalm 109:1-31 NASB

[1] God of my praise, Do not be silent! [2] For they have opened a 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 have fought against me without cause. [4] In return for my love they act as my accusers; But I am in prayer. [5] So they have repaid me evil for good, And hatred for my love. [6] Appoint a wicked person over him, And may an accuser stand at his right hand. [7] When he is judged, may he come out guilty, And may his prayer become sin. [8] May his days be few; May another take his office. [9] May his children be fatherless, And his wife a widow. [10] May his children wander about and beg; And may they seek sustenance far from their ruined homes. [11] May the creditor seize everything that he has, And may strangers plunder the product of his labor. [12] May there be none to extend kindness to him, Nor any to be gracious to his fatherless children. [13] May his descendants be eliminated; May their name be wiped out in a following generation. [14] May the guilt of his fathers be remembered before the Lord, And do not let the sin of his mother be wiped out. [15] May they be before the Lord continually, So that He may eliminate their memory from the earth; [16] Because he did not remember to show mercy, But persecuted the afflicted and needy person, 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 his body like water, And like oil into his bones. [19] May it be to him as a garment with which he covers himself, And as a belt which he constantly wears around himself. [20] May this be the reward of my accusers from the Lord, And of those who speak evil against my soul. [21] But You, God, the Lord, deal kindly with me for the sake of Your name; Because Your mercy is good, rescue 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 disgrace to them; When they see me, they shake their head. [26] Help me, Lord my God; Save me according to Your mercy. [27] And may they know that this is Your hand; You, Lord, have done it. [28] They will curse, but You bless; When they arise, they will be ashamed, But Your servant will be glad. [29] May my accusers be clothed with dishonor, And may they cover themselves with their own shame as with a robe. [30] With my mouth I will give thanks abundantly to the Lord; And I will praise Him in the midst of many. [31] For He stands at the right hand of the needy, To save him from those who judge his soul.
