12. Let there be none to extend mercy unto him: neither let there be any to favor his fatherless children.
13. Let his posterity be cut off; and in the generation following let their name be blotted out.
14. Let the iniquity of his fathers be remembered with the LORD; and let not the sin of his mother be blotted out.
15. Let them be before the LORD continually, that he may cut off the memory of them from the earth.
16. Because he remembered not to show mercy, but persecuted the poor and needy man, that he might even slay the broken in heart.
17. As he loved cursing, so let it come unto him: as he delighted not in blessing, so let it be far from him.
18. As he clothed himself with cursing as with his garment, so let it come into his body like water, and like oil into his bones.
19. Let it be unto him as the garment which covers him, and for a belt with which he is girded continually.
20. Let this be the reward of my adversaries from the LORD, and of them that speak evil against my soul.
21. But take care of me, O GOD the Lord, for your name's sake: because your mercy is good, deliver me.
22. For I am poor and needy, and my heart is wounded within me.
23. I am gone like the shadow when it declines: I am shaken off like the locust.
