Psalm 109:6-13
New King James Version
6 Set a wicked man over him,
And let (A)an [a]accuser stand at his right hand.
7 When he is judged, let him be found guilty,
And (B)let his prayer become sin.
8 Let his days be (C)few,
And (D)let another take his office.
9 (E)Let his children be fatherless,
And his wife a widow.
10 Let his children [b]continually be vagabonds, and beg;
Let them [c]seek their bread also from their desolate places.
11 (F)Let the creditor seize all that he has,
And let strangers plunder his labor.
12 Let there be none to extend mercy to him,
Nor let there be any to favor his fatherless children.
13 (G)Let his [d]posterity be cut off,
And in the generation following let their (H)name be blotted out.
