Psalms 109:15–21

15

Let them be before the LORD continually,

that he may cut off their memory from the earth;

16

because he didn’t remember to show kindness,

but persecuted the poor and needy man,

the broken in heart, to kill them.

17

Yes, he loved cursing, and it came to him.

He didn’t delight in blessing, and it was far from him.

18
Selected verse

He clothed himself also with cursing as with his garment.

It came into his inward parts like water,

like oil into his bones.

19

Let it be to him as the clothing with which he covers himself,

for the belt that is always around him.

20

This is the reward of my adversaries from the LORD,

of those who speak evil against my soul.

21

But deal with me, GOD the Lord, for your name’s sake,

because your loving kindness is good, deliver me;
