2. Wicked people and liars have attacked me.They tell lies about me
3. and they say evil things about me,attacking me for no reason.
4. They oppose me, even though I love themand have prayed for them.
5. They pay me back evil for goodand hatred for love.
6. Choose some corrupt judge to try my enemy,and let one of his own enemies accuse him.
7. May he be tried and found guilty;may even his prayer be considered a crime!
8. May his life soon be ended;may someone else take his job!
9. May his children become orphans,and his wife a widow!
10. May his children be homeless beggars;may they be driven from the ruins they live in!
11. May his creditors take away all his property,and may strangers get everything he worked for.
12. May no one ever be kind to himor care for the orphans he leaves behind.
13. May all his descendants die,and may his name be forgotten in the next generation.
14. May the Lord remember the evil of his ancestorsand never forgive his mother's sins.
