11. Let the extortioner catch all that he hath; and let strangers make spoil of his labour.
12. Let there be none to extend mercy unto him; neither let there be any to have pity on his fatherless children.
13. Let his posterity be cut off; 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 that he remembered not to shew mercy, but persecuted the poor and needy man, and the broken in heart, to slay them.
17. Yea, he loved cursing, and it came unto him; and he delighted not in blessing, and it was far from him.
18. He clothed himself also with cursing as with his garment, and it came into his inward parts like water, and like oil into his bones. Let it be unto him as the raiment
19. wherewith he covereth himself, and for the girdle wherewith he is girded continually.
20. This is the reward of mine adversaries from the Lord, and of them that speak evil against my soul.
21. But deal thou with me, O GODthe Lord, for thy name's sake: because thy mercy is good, deliver thou me,
22. For I am poor and needy, and my heart is wounded within me.
