59:13 Angrily wipe them out! Wipe them out so they vanish!
Let them know that God rules
in Jacob and to the ends of the earth! (Selah)
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
109:2 For they say cruel and deceptive things to me;
they lie to me.
A prayer of David.
17:1 Lord, consider my just cause!
Pay attention to my cry for help!
Listen to the prayer
I sincerely offer!
18:9 He made the sky sink
a thick cloud was under his feet.
18:14 He shot his
many lightning bolts
