ASV_Strong : Psalms 109
1.
2. For the mouth[H6310] of the wicked[H7563] and the mouth[H6310] of deceit[H4820] have they opened[H6605] against me[H1696]: They have spoken unto me with a lying[H8267] tongue[H3956].
3. They have compassed[H5437] me about also with words[H1697] of hatred[H8135], And fought[H3898] against me without a cause[H2600].
4. For my love[H160] they are my adversaries[H7853]: But I give myself unto prayer[H8605].
5. And they have rewarded[H7760] me evil[H7451] for good[H2896], And hatred[H8135] for my love[H160].
6. Set[H6485] thou a wicked man[H7563] over him[H7854]; And let an adversary stand[H5975] at his right hand[H3225].
7. When he is judged[H8199], let him come forth[H3318] guilty[H7563]; And let his prayer[H8605] be turned into sin[H2401].
8. Let his days[H3117] be few[H4592]; And let another[H312] take[H3947] his office[H6486].
9. Let his children[H1121] be fatherless[H3490], And his wife[H802] a widow[H490].
10. Let his children[H1121] be[H5128] vagabonds[H5128], and beg[H7592]; And let them seek[H1875] their bread out of their desolate places[H2723].
11. Let the extortioner[H5383] catch[H5367] all that he hath[H2114]; And let strangers make spoil[H962] of his labor[H3018].
12. Let there be none to extend[H4900] kindness[H2617] unto him[H2603]; Neither let there be any to have pity on his fatherless children[H3490].
13. Let his posterity[H319] be cut off[H3772]; In the generation[H1755] following[H312] let their name[H8034] be blotted out[H4229].
14. Let the iniquity[H5771] of his fathers[H1] be remembered[H2142] with Jehovah[H3068]; And let not the sin[H2403] of his mother[H517] be blotted out[H4229].
15. Let them be before Jehovah[H3068] continually[H8548], That he may cut off[H3772] the memory[H2143] of them from the earth[H776];
16. Because he remembered[H2142] not to show[H6213] kindness[H2617], But persecuted[H7291] the poor[H6041] and needy[H6041] man[H376], And the broken[H3512] in heart[H3824], to slay them[H4191].
17. Yea[H157], he loved cursing[H7045], and it came[H935] unto him[H2654]; And he delighted not in blessing[H1293], and it was far from him[H7368].
18. He clothed[H3847] himself also with cursing[H7045] as with his garment[H4055], And it came[H935] into his inward[H7130] parts like water[H4325], And like oil[H8081] into his bones[H6106].
19. Let it be unto him as the raiment[H899] wherewith he covereth[H5844] himself[H4206], And for the girdle wherewith he is girded[H2296] continually[H8548].
20. This is the reward[H6468] of mine adversaries[H7853] from Jehovah[H3068], And of them that speak[H1696] evil[H7451] against my soul[H5315].
21. But deal[H6213] thou with me[H3069], O Jehovah the Lord[H136], for thy name[H8034]'s sake[H2617]: Because thy lovingkindness is good[H2896], deliver thou me[H5337];
22. For I am poor[H6041] and needy[H34], And my heart[H3820] is wounded[H2490] within me[H7130].
23. I am gone[H1980] like the shadow[H6738] when it declineth[H5186]: I am tossed up and down[H5287] as the locust[H697].
24. My knees[H1290] are weak[H3782] through fasting[H6685]; And my flesh[H1320] faileth[H3584] of fatness[H8081].
25. I am become also a reproach[H2781] unto them[H7200]: When they see me[H5128], they shake their head[H7218].
26. Help[H5826] me[H3068], O Jehovah my God[H430]; Oh save[H3467] me according to thy lovingkindness[H2617]:
27. That they may know[H3045] that this is thy hand[H3027]; That thou[H3068], Jehovah, hast done it[H6213].
28. Let them curse[H7043], but bless[H1288] thou[H6965]: When they arise, they shall be put to shame[H954], But thy servant[H5650] shall rejoice[H8055].
29. Let mine adversaries[H7853] be clothed[H3847] with dishonor[H3639], And let them cover[H5844] themselves with their own shame[H1322] as with a robe[H4598].
30. I will give great[H3966] thanks[H3034] unto Jehovah[H3068] with my mouth[H6310]; Yea[H1984], I will praise him among[H8432] the multitude[H7227].
31. For he will stand[H5975] at the right hand[H3225] of the needy[H34], To save[H3467] him from them that judge[H8199] his soul[H5315].
