Psalms 109
109:1

Hold not thy peace,2790 O Elohim430 of my praise;8416

109:2

For the mouth6310 of the wicked7563 and the mouth6310 of the deceitful4820 are opened6605 against me: they have spoken1696 against me with a lying8267 tongue.3956

109:3

They compassed me about5437 also with words1697 of hatred;8135 and fought3898 against me without a cause.2600

109:4

For my love160 they are my adversaries:7853 but I give myself unto prayer.8605

109:5

And they have rewarded7760 me evil7451 for good,2896 and hatred8135 for my love.160

109:6

Set6485 thou a wicked7563 man over him: and let Satan7854 stand5975 at his right hand.3225

109:7

When he shall be judged,8199 let him be3318 condemned:7563 and let his prayer8605 become sin.2401

109:8

Let his days3117 be few;4592 and let another312 take3947 his office.6486

109:9

Let his children1121 be fatherless,3490 and his wife802 a widow.490

109:10

Let his children1121 be continually5128 vagabonds,5128 and beg:7592 let them seek1875 their bread also out of their desolate places.2723

109:11

Let the extortioner5383 catch5367 all that he hath; and let the strangers2114 spoil962 his labour.3018

109:12

Let there be none to extend4900 mercy2617 unto him: neither let there be any to favour2603 his fatherless children.3490

109:13

Let his posterity319 be cut off;3772 and in the generation1755 following312 let their name8034 be blotted out.4229

109:14

Let the iniquity5771 of his fathers1 be remembered2142 with Yahweh;3068 and let not the sin2403 of his mother517 be blotted out.4229

109:15

Let them be before Yahweh3068 continually,8548 that he may cut off3772 the memory2143 of them from the earth.776

109:16

Because that he remembered2142 not to shew6213 mercy,2617 but persecuted7291 the poor6041 and needy34 man,376 that he might even slay4191 the broken3512 in heart.3824

109:17

As he loved157 cursing,7045 so let it come935 unto him: as he delighted2654 not in blessing,1293 so let it be far7368 from him.

109:18

As he clothed3847 himself with cursing7045 like as with his garment,4055 so let it come935 into his bowels7130 like water,4325 and like oil8081 into his bones.6106

109:19

Let it be unto him as the garment899 which covereth5844 him, and for a girdle4206 wherewith he is girded2296 continually.8548

109:20

Let this be the reward6468 of mine adversaries7853 from Yahweh,3068 and of them that speak1696 evil7451 against my soul.5315

109:21

But do6213 thou for me, O Yahweh3069 my Sovereign,136 for thy name's8034 sake: because thy mercy2617 is good,2896 deliver5337 thou me.

109:22

For I am poor6041 and needy,34 and my heart3820 is wounded2490 within7130 me.

109:23

I am gone1980 like the shadow6738 when it declineth:5186 I am tossed up and down5287 as the locust.697

109:24

My knees1290 are weak3782 through fasting;6685 and my flesh1320 faileth3584 of fatness.8081

109:25

I became also a reproach2781 unto them: when they looked7200 upon me they shaked5128 their heads.7218

109:26

Help5826 me, O Yahweh3068 my Elohim:430 O save3467 me according to thy mercy:2617

109:27

That they may know3045 that this is thy hand;3027 that thou, Yahweh,3068 hast done6213 it.

109:28

Let them curse,7043 but bless1288 thou: when they arise,6965 let them be ashamed;954 but let thy servant5650 rejoice.8055

109:29

Let mine adversaries7853 be clothed3847 with shame,3639 and let them cover5844 themselves with their own confusion,1322 as with a mantle.4598

109:30

I will greatly3966 praise3034 Yahweh3068 with my mouth;6310 yea, I will praise1984 him among8432 the multitude.7227

109:31

For he shall stand5975 at the right hand3225 of the poor,34 to save3467 him from those that condemn8199 his soul.5315
