6
Appoint an evil man to oppose him;
let an accuser stand at his right hand.
7
When he is tried, let him be found guilty,
and may his prayers condemn him.
8
May his days be few;
may another take his place of leadership.
9
May his children be fatherless
and his wife a widow.
10
May his children be wandering beggars;
may they be driven from their ruined homes.
11
May a creditor seize all he has;
may strangers plunder the fruits of his labor.
12
May no one extend kindness to him
or take pity on his fatherless children.
13
May his descendants be cut off,
their names blotted out from the next generation.
14
May the iniquity of his fathers be remembered before the Lord;
may the sin of his mother never be blotted out.
15
May their sins always remain before the Lord,
that he may cut off the memory of them from the earth.
