1O GOD of my praise! Keep not silence,
2For the mouths of the wicked and the mouth of deceit are opened against me; they have spoken to me {and} against me with lying tongues.
3They have compassed me about also with words of hatred and have fought against me without a cause.
4In return for my love they are my adversaries, but I resort to prayer.
5And they have rewarded {and} laid upon me evil for good, and hatred for my love.
6Set a wicked man over him [as a judge], and let [a malicious] accuser stand at his right hand.
7When [the wicked] is judged, let him be condemned, and let his prayer [for leniency] be turned into a sin.
8Let his days be few; and let another take his office {and} charge.
9Let his children be fatherless and his wife a widow.
10Let his children be continual vagabonds [as was Cain] and beg; let them seek their bread {and} be driven far from their ruined homes.
11Let the creditor {and} extortioner seize all that he has; and let strangers (barbarians and foreigners) plunder the fruits of his labor.
12Let there be none to extend {or} continue mercy {and} kindness to him, neither let there be any to have pity on his fatherless children.
13Let his posterity be cut off, and in the generation following let their names be blotted out.
14Let the iniquity of his fathers be remembered by the Lord; and let not the sin of his mother be blotted out.
15Let them be before the Lord continually, that He may cut off the memory of them from the earth!--
16Because the man did not [earnestly] remember to show mercy, but pursued {and} persecuted the poor and needy man, and the broken in heart [he was ready] to slay.
17Yes, he loved cursing, and it came [back] upon him; he delighted not in blessing, and it was far from him.
18He clothed himself also with cursing as with his garment, and it seeped into his inward [life] like water, and like oil into his bones.
19Let it be to him as the raiment with which he covers himself and as the girdle with which he is girded continually.
20Let this be the reward of my adversaries from the Lord, and of those who speak evil against my life.
21But You deal with me {and} act for me, O God the Lord, for Your name's sake; because Your mercy {and} loving-kindness are good, O deliver me.
22For I am poor and needy, and my heart is wounded {and} stricken within me.
23I am gone like the shadow when it lengthens {and} declines; I toss up and down {and} am shaken off as the locust.
24My knees are weak {and} totter from fasting; and my body is gaunt {and} has no fatness.
25I have become also a reproach {and} a taunt to others; when they see me, they shake their heads.
26Help me, O Lord my God; O save me according to Your mercy {and} loving-kindness!--
27That they may know that this is Your hand, that You, Lord, have done it.
28Let them curse, but do You bless. When adversaries arise, let them be put to shame, but let Your servant rejoice.
29Let my adversaries be clothed with shame {and} dishonor, and let them cover themselves with their own disgrace {and} confusion as with a robe.
30I will give great praise {and} thanks to the Lord with my mouth; yes, {and} I will praise Him among the multitude.
31For He will stand at the right hand of the poor {and} needy, to save him from those who condemn his life.
