New Testament

Psalms 109:7-16 Common English Bible (CEB)

7. When the sentence is passed, let him be found guilty—let his prayer be found sinful!

8. Let his days be few;let someone else assume his position.

9. Let his children become orphans;let his wife turn into a widow.

10. Let his children wander aimlessly, begging,driven out of their ruined homes.

11. Let a creditor seize everything he owns;let strangers plunder his wealth.

12. Let no one extend faithful love to him;let no one have mercy on his orphans.

13. Let his descendants be eliminated;let their names be wiped out in just one generation!

14. Let his father’s wrongdoing be remembered before the Lord;let his mother’s sin never be wiped out.

15. Let them be before the Lord always,and let God eliminate the very memory of them from the land.

16. All because this person didn’t remember to demonstrate faithful love,but chased after the poor and needy—even the brokenhearted—with deadly intent!
