Old Testament

New Testament

Psalm 109:4-11 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

4. They bring charges against me, even though I love them and pray for them.

5. They pay me back with evil for the good things I do. They pay back my love with hatred.

6. Appoint an evil person to take my enemies to court. Let him stand at their right hand and bring charges against them.

7. When they are tried, let them be found guilty. May even their prayers judge them.

8. May their days be few. Let others take their places as leaders.

9. May their children's fathers die. May their wives become widows.

10. May their children be driven from their destroyed homes. May they wander around like beggars.

11. May everything those people own be taken away to pay for what they owe. May strangers rob them of everything they've worked for.
