nor blot out their sin from your sight.
Let them be overthrown before you;
deal with them in the time of your anger.

9 May his (H)children be fatherless
and his wife a widow!
10 May his children (I)wander about and beg,

17 (W)He loved to curse; let curses come[a] upon him!
He did not delight in blessing; may it be far[b] from him!

may it (Y)soak[c] into his body like water,
like oil into his bones!
19 May it be like a garment that he wraps around him,
like a belt that he puts on every day!
20 May this be the reward of my (Z)accusers from the Lord,
of those who speak evil against my life!
