< Psalms 109 >
1 [For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David.] God of my praise, do not remain silent,
To the choirmaster of David a psalm O God of praise my may not you be silent.
2 for they have opened the mouth of the wicked and the mouth of deceit against me. They have spoken to me with a lying tongue.
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 also surrounded me with words of hatred, and fought against me without a cause.
And words of hatred they have surrounded me and they have fought against me without cause.
4 In return for my love, they are my adversaries; but I am in prayer.
In place of love my they accuse me and I [am] prayer.
5 They have rewarded 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 Set a wicked man over him. Let an adversary stand at his right hand.
Appoint on him a wicked [person] and an accuser let him stand on right [hand] his.
7 When he is judged, let him come forth guilty. Let his prayer be turned into sin.
When is judged he let him come forth guilty and prayer his let it become sin.
8 Let his days be few. Let another take his office.
May they be days his few office his may he take another.
9 Let his children be fatherless, and his wife a widow.
May they be children his fatherless ones and wife his a widow.
10 Let his children be wandering beggars. Let them be sought from their ruins.
And really may they wander children his and they will beg and they will seek away from ruins their.
11 Let the creditor seize all that he has. Let strangers plunder the fruit of his labor.
May he strike a creditor to all that [belongs] to him and may they plunder strangers property his.
12 Let there be none to extend kindness to him, neither let there be any to have pity on his fatherless children.
May not it belong to him [one who] prolongs loyalty and may not it belong [one who] shows favor to fatherless children his.
13 Let his posterity be cut off. In the generation following let their name be blotted out.
May it be posterity his to cut off in a generation another may it be wiped out name their.
14 Let the iniquity of his fathers be remembered by the LORD. Do not let the sin of his mother be 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 Let them be before the LORD continually, that he may cut off the memory of them from the earth;
Let them be before Yahweh continually and may he cut off from [the] earth memory their.
16 because he did not remember to show kindness, but persecuted the poor and needy man, the broken in heart, to kill them.
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 Yes, he loved cursing, and it came to him. He did not delight in blessing, and it was 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 He clothed himself also with cursing as with his garment. It came into his inward parts like water, like 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 Let it be to him as the clothing with which he covers himself, for the belt that is always around him.
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 reward of my adversaries from the LORD, of those who speak evil against my soul.
This [be] [the] wage[s] of accusers my from with Yahweh and those [who] speak evil on self my.
21 But deal with me, the LORD the Lord, for your name's sake, because your loving 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. My heart is wounded within me.
For [am] poor and needy I and heart my someone has pierced in inner being my.
23 I fade away like an evening shadow. I am shaken off like a locust.
Like a shadow when stretches out it I have vanished I have been shaken off like locust.
24 My knees are weak through fasting. My body is thin and lacks fat.
Knees my they have staggered from fasting and flesh my it has become lean from fatness.
25 I have also become a reproach to them. When 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, LORD, my God. Save me according to your loving kindness;
Help me O Yahweh God my save me according to covenant loyalty your.
27 that they may know that this is your hand; that you, LORD, have done it.
So they may know that [is] hand your this you O Yahweh you have done it.
28 They may curse, but you bless. When they arise, they will be shamed, but your servant shall rejoice.
They will curse they and you you will bless they have arisen - and they have been ashamed and servant your he will rejoice.
29 Let my adversaries be clothed with dishonor. Let them cover themselves with their own shame as with a robe.
May they be clothed accusers my ignominy and may they be wrapped like robe shame their.
30 I will give great thanks to the LORD with my mouth. Yes, I will praise him among the multitude.
I will give thanks to Yahweh exceedingly with mouth my and in among many [people] I will praise him.
31 For he will stand at the right hand of the needy, to save him from those who judge his soul.
For he stands to [the] right [hand] of [the] needy to save [him] from [those who] judge self his.
