Psalm 109

To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 109:1} Hold not thy peace, O God of my praise; ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 109:2} For the mouth of the wicked and the mouth of the deceitful are opened against me: they have spoken against me with a lying tongue. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 109:3} They compassed me about also with words of hatred; and fought against me without a cause. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 109:4} For my love they are my adversaries: but I [give myself unto] prayer. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 109:5} And they have rewarded me evil for good, and hatred for my love. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 109:6} Set thou a wicked man over him: and let Satan stand at his right hand. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 109:7} When he shall be judged, let him be condemned: and let his prayer become sin. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 109:8} Let his days be few; [and] let another take his office. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 109:9} Let his children be fatherless, and his wife a widow. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 109:10} Let his children be continually vagabonds, and beg: let them seek [their bread] also out of their desolate places. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 109:11} Let the extortioner catch all that he hath; and let the strangers spoil his labour. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 109:12} Let there be none to extend mercy unto him: neither let there be any to favour his fatherless children. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 109:13} Let his posterity be cut off; [and] in the generation following let their name be blotted out. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 109:14} Let the iniquity of his fathers be remembered with the LORD; and let not the sin of his mother be blotted out. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 109:15} Let them be before the LORD continually, that he may cut off the memory of them from the earth. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 109:16} Because that he remembered not to shew mercy, but persecuted the poor and needy man, that he might even slay the broken in heart. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 109:17} As he loved cursing, so let it come unto him: as he delighted not in blessing, so let it be far from him. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 109:18} As he clothed himself with cursing like as with his garment, so let it come into his bowels like water, and like oil into his bones. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 109:19} Let it be unto him as the garment [which] covereth him, and for a girdle wherewith he is girded continually. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 109:20} [Let] this [be] the reward of mine adversaries from the LORD, and of them that speak evil against my soul. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 109:21} But do thou for me, O GOD the Lord, for thy name’s sake: because thy mercy [is] good, deliver thou me. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 109:22} For I [am] poor and needy, and my heart is wounded within me. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 109:23} I am gone like the shadow when it declineth: I am tossed up and down as the locust. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 109:24} My knees are weak through fasting; and my flesh faileth of fatness. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 109:25} I became also a reproach unto them: [when] they looked upon me they shaked their heads. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 109:26} Help me, O LORD my God: O save me according to thy mercy: ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 109:27} That they may know that this [is] thy hand; [that] thou, LORD, hast done it. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 109:28} Let them curse, but bless thou: when they arise, let them be ashamed; but let thy servant rejoice. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 109:29} Let mine adversaries be clothed with shame, and let them cover themselves with their own confusion, as with a mantle. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 109:30} I will greatly praise the LORD with my mouth; yea, I will praise him among the multitude. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 109:31} For he shall stand at the right hand of the poor, to save [him] from those that condemn his soul.
