2They speak to me with a lying tongue; *
they encompass me with hateful words
and fight against me without a cause.
3Despite my love, they accuse me; *
but as for me, I pray for them.
4They repay evil for good, *
and hatred for my love.
5Set a wicked man against him, *
and let an accuser stand at his right hand.
6When he is judged, let him be found guilty, *
and let his appeal be in vain.
7Let his days be few, *
and let another take his office.
8Let his children be fatherless, *
and his wife become a widow.
9Let his children be waifs and beggars; *
let them be driven from the ruins of their homes.
10Let the creditor seize everything he has; *
let strangers plunder his gains.
11Let there be no one to show him kindness, *
and none to pity his fatherless children.
12Let his descendants be destroyed, *
and his name be blotted out in the next generation.
13Let the wickedness of his fathers be remembered before the Lord, *
and his mother’s sin not be blotted out;
14Let their sin be always before the Lord; *
but let him root out their names from the earth;
Psalm 109751
