\d For the chief musician. A psalm of David.
|
|
\b
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 1 God whom I praise, do not be silent,
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 2 For the wicked and deceitful attack me;
|
|
\q they speak lies against me.
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 3 They surround me and say hateful things,
|
|
\q and they attack me without cause.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 4 In return for my love they slander me,
|
|
\q but I pray for them.
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 5 They repay me evil for good,
|
|
\q and they hate my love.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 6 Appoint a wicked man over such an enemy as these people;
|
|
\q appoint an accuser to stand at his right hand.
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 7 When he is judged, may he be found guilty;
|
|
\q may his prayer be considered sinful.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 8 May his days be few;
|
|
\q may another take his office.
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 9 May his children be fatherless,
|
|
\q and may his wife be a widow.
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 10 May his children wander about and beg,
|
|
\q asking for handouts as they leave their ruined home.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 11 May the creditor take all he owns;
|
|
\q may strangers plunder what he earns.
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 12 May no one extend any kindness to him;
|
|
\q may no one have pity on his fatherless children.
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 13 May his children be cut off;
|
|
\q may their name be blotted out in the next generation.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 14 May his ancestors' sins be mentioned to Yahweh;
|
|
\q and may the sin of his mother not be forgotten.
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 15 May their guilt always be before Yahweh;
|
|
\q may Yahweh cut off their memory from the earth.
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 16 May Yahweh do this because this man never bothered to show any covenant faithfulness,
|
|
\q but instead harassed the oppressed, the needy,
|
|
\q and the disheartened to death.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 17 He loved cursing; may it come back upon him.
|
|
\q He hated blessing; may no blessing come to him.
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 18 He clothed himself with cursing as his garment,
|
|
\q and his curse came into his inner being like water,
|
|
\q like oil into his bones.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 19 May his curses be to him like the clothes he wears to cover himself,
|
|
\q like the belt he always wears.
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 20 May this be the reward of my accusers from Yahweh,
|
|
\q of those who say evil things about me.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 21 Yahweh my Lord, deal kindly with me for your name's sake.
|
|
\q Because your covenant faithfulness is good, save me.
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 22 For I am oppressed and needy,
|
|
\q and my heart is wounded within me.
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 23 I am fading away like the shadow of the evening;
|
|
\q I am shaken off like a locust.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 24 My knees are weak from fasting;
|
|
\q I am turning to skin and bones.
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 25 I am disdained by my accusers;
|
|
\q when they see me, they shake their heads.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 26 Help me, Yahweh my God;
|
|
\q save me by your covenant faithfulness.
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 27 May they know that this is your doing,
|
|
\q that you, Yahweh, have done this.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 28 Though they curse me, please bless me;
|
|
\q when they attack, may they be put to shame,
|
|
\q but may your servant rejoice.
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 29 May my adversaries be clothed with shame;
|
|
\q may they wear their shame like a robe.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 30 With my mouth I give great thanks to Yahweh;
|
|
\q I will praise him in the midst of a crowd.
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 31 For he will stand at the right hand of the one who is needy,
|
|
\q to save him from those who judge him.
