1 Hold not thy peace, O God of my praise; ASV — Psalm 109:1
2 For the mouth of the wicked and the mouth of deceit have they opened against me: They have spoken unto me with a lying tongue. ASV — Psalm 109:2
3 They have compassed me about also with words of hatred, And fought against me without a cause. ASV — Psalm 109:3
4 For my love they are my adversaries: But I [give myself unto] prayer. ASV — Psalm 109:4
5 And they have rewarded me evil for good, And hatred for my love. ASV — Psalm 109:5
6 Set thou a wicked man over him; And let an adversary stand at his right hand. ASV — Psalm 109:6
7 When he is judged, let him come forth guilty; And let his prayer be turned into sin. ASV — Psalm 109:7
8 Let his days be few; [And] let another take his office. ASV — Psalm 109:8
9 Let his children be fatherless, And his wife a widow. ASV — Psalm 109:9
10 Let his children be vagabonds, and beg; And let them seek [their bread] out of their desolate places. ASV — Psalm 109:10
11 Let the extortioner catch all that he hath; And let strangers make spoil of his labor. ASV — Psalm 109:11
12 Let there be none to extend kindness unto him; Neither let there be any to have pity on his fatherless children. ASV — Psalm 109:12
13 Let his posterity be cut off; In the generation following let their name be blotted out. ASV — Psalm 109:13
14 Let the iniquity of his fathers be remembered with Jehovah; And let not the sin of his mother be blotted out. ASV — Psalm 109:14
15 Let them be before Jehovah continually, That he may cut off the memory of them from the earth; ASV — Psalm 109:15
16 Because he remembered not to show kindness, But persecuted the poor and needy man, And the broken in heart, to slay [them]. ASV — Psalm 109:16
17 Yea, he loved cursing, and it came unto him; And he delighted not in blessing, and it was far from him. ASV — Psalm 109:17
18 He clothed himself also with cursing as with his garment, And it came into his inward parts like water, And like oil into his bones. ASV — Psalm 109:18
19 Let it be unto him as the raiment wherewith he covereth himself, And for the girdle wherewith he is girded continually. ASV — Psalm 109:19
20 This is the reward of mine adversaries from Jehovah, And of them that speak evil against my soul. ASV — Psalm 109:20
21 But deal thou with me, O Jehovah the Lord, for thy name`s sake: Because thy lovingkindness is good, deliver thou me; ASV — Psalm 109:21
22 For I am poor and needy, And my heart is wounded within me. ASV — Psalm 109:22
23 I am gone like the shadow when it declineth: I am tossed up and down as the locust. ASV — Psalm 109:23
24 My knees are weak through fasting; And my flesh faileth of fatness. ASV — Psalm 109:24
25 I am become also a reproach unto them: When they see me, they shake their head. ASV — Psalm 109:25
26 Help me, O Jehovah my God; Oh save me according to thy lovingkindness: ASV — Psalm 109:26
27 That they may know that this is thy hand; [That] thou, Jehovah, hast done it. ASV — Psalm 109:27
28 Let them curse, but bless thou: When they arise, they shall be put to shame, But thy servant shall rejoice. ASV — Psalm 109:28
29 Let mine adversaries be clothed with dishonor, And let them cover themselves with their own shame as with a robe. ASV — Psalm 109:29
30 I will give great thanks unto Jehovah with my mouth; Yea, I will praise him among the multitude. ASV — Psalm 109:30
31 For he will stand at the right hand of the needy, To save him from them that judge his soul. Psalm 110 A Psalm of David. ASV — Psalm 109:31
