Psalms 109:1-23

109:1

<
<To the chief Musician <05329> (8764)_,

A Psalm
<04210>

of David
<01732>.>>

Hold not thy peace
<02790> (8799)_,

O God
<0430>

of my praise
<08416>_;

109:2

For the mouth
<06310>

of the wicked
<07563>

and the mouth
<06310>

of the deceitful
<04820>

are opened
<06605> (8804)

against me: they have spoken
<01696> (8765)

against me with a lying
<08267>

tongue
<03956>_.

{of the deceitful: Heb. of deceit} {are opened: Heb. have opened themselves}

109:3

They compassed
<05437> (8804)

me about also with words
<01697>

of hatred
<08135>_;

and fought
<03898> (8735)

against me without a cause
<02600>_.

109:4

For my love
<0160>

they are my adversaries
<07853> (8799)_:

but I [give myself unto] prayer
<08605>_.

109:5

And they have rewarded
<07760> (8799)

me evil
<07451>

for good
<02896>_,

and hatred
<08135>

for my love
<0160>_.

109:6

Set
<06485> (8685)

thou a wicked man
<07563>

over him: and let Satan
<07854>

stand
<05975> (8799)

at his right hand
<03225>_.

{Satan: or, an adversary}

109:7

When he shall be judged
<08199> (8736)_,

let him be
<03318> (8799)

condemned
<07563>_:

and let his prayer
<08605>

become sin
<02401>_.

{be condemned: Heb. go out guilty, or, wicked}

109:8

Let his days
<03117>

be few
<04592>_;

[and] let another
<0312>

take
<03947> (8799)

his office
<06486>_.

{office: or, charge}

109:9

Let his children
<01121>

be fatherless
<03490>_,

and his wife
<0802>

a widow
<0490>_.

109:10

Let his children
<01121>

be continually
<05128> (8800)

vagabonds
<05128> (8799)_,

and beg
<07592> (8765)_:

let them seek
<01875> (8804)

[their bread] also out of their desolate places
<02723>_.

109:11

Let the extortioner
<05383> (8802)

catch
<05367> (8762)

all that he hath; and let the strangers
<02114> (8801)

spoil
<0962> (8799)

his labour
<03018>_.

109:12

Let there be none to extend
<04900> (8802)

mercy
<02617>

unto him: neither let there be any to favour
<02603> (8802)

his fatherless children
<03490>_.

109:13

Let his posterity
<0319>

be cut off
<03772> (8687)_;

[and] in the generation
<01755>

following
<0312>

let their name
<08034>

be blotted out
<04229> (8735)_.

109:14

Let the iniquity
<05771>

of his fathers
<01>

be remembered
<02142> (8735)

with the LORD
<03068>_;

and let not the sin
<02403>

of his mother
<0517>

be blotted out
<04229> (8735)_.

109:15

Let them be before the LORD
<03068>

continually
<08548>_,

that he may cut off
<03772> (8686)

the memory
<02143>

of them from the earth
<0776>_.

109:16

Because that he remembered
<02142> (8804)

not to shew
<06213> (8800)

mercy
<02617>_,

but persecuted
<07291> (8799)

the poor
<06041>

and needy
<034>

man
<0376>_,

that he might even slay
<04191> (8788)

the broken
<03512> (8737)

in heart
<03824>_.

109:17

As he loved
<0157> (8799)

cursing
<07045>_,

so let it come
<0935> (8799)

unto him: as he delighted
<02654> (8804)

not in blessing
<01293>_,

so let it be far
<07368> (8799)

from him.

109:18

As he clothed
<03847> (8799)

himself with cursing
<07045>

like as with his garment
<04055>_,

so let it come
<0935> (8799)

into his bowels
<07130>

like water
<04325>_,

and like oil
<08081>

into his bones
<06106>_.

{into his bowels: Heb. within him}

109:19

Let it be unto him as the garment
<0899>

[which] covereth
<05844> (8799)

him, and for a girdle
<04206>

wherewith he is girded
<02296> (8799)

continually
<08548>_.

109:20

[Let] this [be] the reward
<06468>

of mine adversaries
<07853> (8802)

from the LORD
<03068>_,

and of them that speak
<01696> (8802)

evil
<07451>

against my soul
<05315>_.

109:21

But do
<06213> (8798)

thou for me, O GOD
<03069>

the Lord
<0136>_,

for thy name's
<08034>

sake: because thy mercy
<02617>

[is] good
<02896>_,

deliver
<05337> (8685)

thou me.

109:22

For I [am] poor
<06041>

and needy
<034>_,

and my heart
<03820>

is wounded
<02490> (8804)

within
<07130>

me.

109:23

I am gone
<01980> (8738)

like the shadow
<06738>

when it declineth
<05186> (8800)_:

I am tossed up and down
<05287> (8738)

as the locust
<0697>_.
