18:37 I chase my enemies and catch
I do not turn back until I wipe them out.
18:38 I beat them
they fall at my feet.
18:39 You give me strength
you make my foes kneel before me.
18:40 You make my enemies retreat;
I destroy those who hate me.
18:41 They cry out, but there is no one to help them;
they cry out to the Lord,
18:42 I grind them as fine windblown dust;
I beat them underfoot
21:8 You
your power is too great for those who hate you.
21:9 You burn them up like a fiery furnace
the Lord angrily devours them;
the fire consumes them.
21:10 You destroy their offspring
their descendants
69:22 May their dining table become a trap before them!
May it be a snare for that group of friends!
69:23 May their eyes be blinded!
Make them shake violently!
69:24 Pour out your judgment
May your raging anger
69:25 May their camp become desolate,
their tents uninhabited!
69:26 For they harass
they spread the news about the suffering of those whom you punish.
69:27 Hold them accountable for all their sins!
Do not vindicate them!
69:28 May their names be deleted from the scroll of the living!
Do not let their names be listed with the godly!
109:6
May an accuser stand
109:7 When he is judged, he will be found
Then his prayer will be regarded as sinful.
109:8 May his days be few!
May another take his job!
109:9 May his children
and his wife a widow!
109:10 May his children
asking for handouts as they leave their ruined home!
109:11 May the creditor seize
May strangers loot his property!
109:12 May no one show him kindness!
May no one have compassion
109:13 May his descendants
May the memory of them be wiped out by the time the next generation arrives!
109:14 May his ancestors’
May his mother’s sin not be forgotten!
109:15 May the Lord be constantly aware of them,
and cut off the memory of his children
109:16 For he never bothered to show kindness;
he harassed the oppressed and needy,
and killed the disheartened.
109:17 He loved to curse
He had no desire to bless anyone, so he has experienced no blessings.
109:18 He made cursing a way of life,
so curses poured into his stomach like water
and seeped into his bones like oil.
109:19 May a curse attach itself to him, like a garment one puts on,
or a belt
109:20 May the Lord repay my accusers in this way,
those who say evil things about
