Let cries be heard from their houses. They have dug a pit to capture me. They have hidden traps for my feet.But Lord, you know all about their plans to kill me. Don’t forgive their crimes.

Psalms 109:6-20
Appoint an evil person to take my enemies to court. Let him stand at their right hand and bring charges against them.When they are tried, let them be found guilty. May even their prayers judge them.May their days be few. Let others take their places as leaders.May their children’s fathers die. May their wives become widows.May their children be driven from their destroyed homes. May they wander around like beggars.May everything those people own be taken away to pay for what they owe. May strangers rob them of everything they’ve worked for.May no one be kind to them or take pity on the children they leave behind.May their family line come to an end. May their names be forgotten by those who live after them.May the Lord remember the evil things their fathers have done. May he never erase the sins of their mothers.May the Lord never forget their sins. Then he won’t let people remember the names of my enemies anymore.They never thought about doing anything kind. Instead, they drove those who were poor and needy to their deaths. They did the same thing to those whose hearts were broken.They loved to curse others. May their curses come back on them. They didn’t find any pleasure in giving anyone their blessing. May no blessing ever come to them.They cursed others as easily as they put on clothes. Cursing was as natural to them as getting a drink of water or putting olive oil on their bodies.May their curses cover them like coats. May their curses be wrapped around them like a belt forever.May that be the Lord’ s way of paying back those who bring charges against me. May it happen to those who say evil things about me.
