Selected passage

109:14Let the iniquity of his fathers be remembered with the Lord; and let not the sin of his mother be blotted out.

Selected passage

109:15Let them be before the Lord continually, that he may cut off the memory of them from the earth.

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

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

109:18As 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.

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

109:20Let this be the reward of mine adversaries from the Lord, and of them that speak evil against my soul.

109:21But do thou for me, O God the Lord, for thy name’s sake: because thy mercy is good, deliver thou me.

109:22For I am poor and needy, and my heart is wounded within me.

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

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

109:25I became also a reproach unto them: when they looked upon me they shaked their heads.

109:26Help me, O Lord my God: O save me according to thy mercy:

109:27That they may know that this is thy hand; that thou, Lord, hast done it.

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

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

109:30I will greatly praise the Lord with my mouth; yea, I will praise him among the multitude.

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