Psalms 109:16-31

“He did not remember to be loving. He hurt the poor, the needy, and those who were sad until they were nearly dead. He loved to put curses on others, so let those same curses fall on him. He did not like to bless others, so do not let good things happen to him. He cursed others as often as he wore clothes. Cursing others filled his body and his life, like drinking water and using olive oil. So let curses cover him like clothes and wrap around him like a belt.” May the LORD do these things to those who accuse me, to those who speak evil against me. But you, Lord GOD, be kind to me so others will know you are good. Because your love is good, save me. I am poor and helpless and very sad. I am dying like an evening shadow; I am shaken off like a locust. My knees are weak from fasting, and I have grown thin. My enemies insult me; they look at me and shake their heads. LORD my God, help me; because you are loving, save me. Then they will know that your power has done this; they will know that you have done it, LORD. They may curse me, but you bless me. They may attack me, but they will be disgraced. Then I, your servant, will be glad. Let those who accuse me be disgraced and covered with shame like a coat. I will thank the LORD very much; I will praise him in front of many people. He defends the helpless and saves them from those who accuse them.
