²³ Lord, you know all about their murderous plots against me.
    Don’t forgive their crimes and blot out their sins.
Let them die before you.
    Deal with them in your anger.

²² Let the bountiful table set before them become a snare
    and their prosperity become a trap.^[a]
23 Let their eyes go blind so they cannot see,
    and make their bodies shake continually.^[b]
24 Pour out your fury on them;
    consume them with your burning anger.
²⁵ Let their homes become desolate
    and their tents be deserted.
²⁶ To the one you have punished, they add insult to injury;
    they add to the pain of those you have hurt.
²⁷ Pile their sins up high,
    and don’t let them go free.
²⁸ Erase their names from the Book of Life;
    don’t let them be counted among the righteous.

⁴ Bring shame and disgrace on those trying to kill me;
    turn them back and humiliate those who want to harm me.

¹⁴ May the Lord never forget the sins of his fathers;
    may his mother’s sins never be erased from the record.
¹⁵ May the Lord always remember these sins,
    and may his name disappear from human memory.
