Psalms 109
1 TO THE OVERSEER. A PSALM OF DAVID. O God of my praise, do not be silent,
To the choirmaster of David a psalm O God of praise my may not you be silent.
2 For the mouth of wickedness, and the mouth of deceit, They have opened against me, They have spoken with me—A tongue of falsehood, and words of hatred!
For [the] mouth of [the] wicked and a mouth of deceit on me they have opened they have spoken with me a tongue of falsehood.
3 They have surrounded me about, And they fight me without cause.
And words of hatred they have surrounded me and they have fought against me without cause.
4 For my love they oppose me, and I—prayer!
In place of love my they accuse me and I [am] prayer.
5 And they set against me evil for good, And hatred for my love.
And they have put on me evil in place of good and hatred in place of love my.
6 Appoint the wicked over him, And an adversary stands at his right hand.
Appoint on him a wicked [person] and an accuser let him stand on right [hand] his.
7 In his being judged, he goes forth wicked, And his prayer is for sin.
When is judged he let him come forth guilty and prayer his let it become sin.
8 His days are few, another takes his oversight,
May they be days his few office his may he take another.
9 His sons are fatherless, and his wife a widow.
May they be children his fatherless ones and wife his a widow.
10 And his sons wander continually, Indeed, they have begged, And have sought out of their dry places.
And really may they wander children his and they will beg and they will seek away from ruins their.
11 An exactor lays a snare for all that he has, And strangers spoil his labor.
May he strike a creditor to all that [belongs] to him and may they plunder strangers property his.
12 He has none to extend kindness, Nor is there one showing favor to his orphans.
May not it belong to him [one who] prolongs loyalty and may not it belong [one who] shows favor to fatherless children his.
13 His posterity is for cutting off, Their name is blotted out in another generation.
May it be posterity his to cut off in a generation another may it be wiped out name their.
14 The iniquity of his fathers Is remembered to YHWH, And the sin of his mother is not blotted out.
May it be remembered - [the] iniquity of ancestors his to Yahweh and [the] sin of mother his may not it be wiped out.
15 They are continually before YHWH, And He cuts off their memorial from earth.
Let them be before Yahweh continually and may he cut off from [the] earth memory their.
16 Because that he has not remembered to do kindness, And pursues the poor man and needy, And the struck of heart—to slay,
Because that - not he remembered to do loyalty and he harassed anyone poor and needy and disheartened of heart to put to [them] death.
17 And he loves reviling, and it meets him, And he has not delighted in blessing, And it is far from him.
And he loved a curse and it came to him and not he delighted in blessing and it was far from him.
18 And he puts on reviling as his robe, And it comes in as water into his midst, And as oil into his bones.
And he put on a curse like garment his and it went like water in inward part[s] his and like oil in bones his.
19 It is to him as apparel—he covers himself, And he girds it on for a continual girdle.
May it be for him like a garment [which] he wraps himself and to a waistband [which] continually he girds on it.
20 This [is] the wage of my accusers from YHWH, And of those speaking evil against my soul.
This [be] [the] wage[s] of accusers my from with Yahweh and those [who] speak evil on self my.
21 And You, O Lord YHWH, Deal with me for Your Name’s sake, Because Your kindness [is] good, deliver me.
And you - O Yahweh O Lord deal with me for [the] sake of name your for [is] good covenant loyalty your deliver me.
22 For I [am] poor and needy, And my heart has been pierced in my midst.
For [am] poor and needy I and heart my someone has pierced in inner being my.
23 I have gone as a shadow when it is stretched out, I have been driven away as a locust.
Like a shadow when stretches out it I have vanished I have been shaken off like locust.
24 My knees have been feeble from fasting, And my flesh has failed of fatness.
Knees my they have staggered from fasting and flesh my it has become lean from fatness.
25 And I have been a reproach to them, They see me, they shake their head.
And I - I have become a reproach to them they see me they shake! head their.
26 Help me, O YHWH my God, Save me, according to Your kindness.
Help me O Yahweh God my save me according to covenant loyalty your.
27 And they know that this [is] Your hand, You, O YHWH, You have done it.
So they may know that [is] hand your this you O Yahweh you have done it.
28 They revile, and You bless, They have risen, and are ashamed, And Your servant rejoices.
They will curse they and you you will bless they have arisen - and they have been ashamed and servant your he will rejoice.
29 My accusers put on blushing, and are covered, Their shame [is] as an upper robe.
May they be clothed accusers my ignominy and may they be wrapped like robe shame their.
30 I thank YHWH greatly with my mouth, And I praise Him in the midst of many,
I will give thanks to Yahweh exceedingly with mouth my and in among many [people] I will praise him.
31 For He stands at the right hand of the needy, To save from those judging his soul.
For he stands to [the] right [hand] of [the] needy to save [him] from [those who] judge self his.
