Set thou a wicked man over him: and let Satan stand at his right hand.

When he shall be judged, let him be condemned: and let his prayer become sin.

Let his days be few; and let another take his office.

Let his children be fatherless, and his wife a widow.

10 Let his children be continually vagabonds, and beg: let them seek their bread also out of their desolate places.

11 Let the extortioner catch all that he hath; and let the strangers spoil his labour.

12 Let there be none to extend mercy unto him: neither let there be any to favour his fatherless children.

13 Let his posterity be cut off; and 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, that he might even slay the broken in heart.

17 As he loved cursing, so let it come unto him: as he delighted not in blessing, so let it be far from him.

18 As he clothed himself with cursing like as with his garment, so let it come into his bowels like water, and like oil into his bones.

19 Let it be unto him as the garment which covereth him, and for a girdle wherewith he is girded continually.

Appoint someone evil to oppose my enemy;
    let an accuser(A) stand at his right hand.
When he is tried, let him be found guilty,(B)
    and may his prayers condemn(C) him.
May his days be few;(D)
    may another take his place(E) of leadership.
May his children be fatherless
    and his wife a widow.(F)
10 May his children be wandering beggars;(G)
    may they be driven[a] from their ruined homes.
11 May a creditor(H) seize all he has;
    may strangers plunder(I) the fruits of his labor.(J)
12 May no one extend kindness to him
    or take pity(K) on his fatherless children.
13 May his descendants be cut off,(L)
    their names blotted out(M) from the next generation.
14 May the iniquity of his fathers(N) be remembered before the Lord;
    may the sin of his mother never be blotted out.
15 May their sins always remain before(O) the Lord,
    that he may blot out their name(P) from the earth.

16 For he never thought of doing a kindness,
    but hounded to death the poor
    and the needy(Q) and the brokenhearted.(R)
17 He loved to pronounce a curse—
    may it come back on him.(S)
He found no pleasure in blessing—
    may it be far from him.
18 He wore cursing(T) as his garment;
    it entered into his body like water,(U)
    into his bones like oil.
19 May it be like a cloak wrapped(V) about him,
    like a belt tied forever around him.

16 Men and brethren, this scripture must needs have been fulfilled, which the Holy Ghost by the mouth of David spake before concerning Judas, which was guide to them that took Jesus.

17 For he was numbered with us, and had obtained part of this ministry.

18 Now this man purchased a field with the reward of iniquity; and falling headlong, he burst asunder in the midst, and all his bowels gushed out.

19 And it was known unto all the dwellers at Jerusalem; insomuch as that field is called in their proper tongue, Aceldama, that is to say, The field of blood.

20 For it is written in the book of Psalms, Let his habitation be desolate, and let no man dwell therein: and his bishoprick let another take.

18 (With the payment(F) he received for his wickedness, Judas bought a field;(G) there he fell headlong, his body burst open and all his intestines spilled out. 19 Everyone in Jerusalem heard about this, so they called that field in their language(H) Akeldama, that is, Field of Blood.)

20 “For,” said Peter, “it is written in the Book of Psalms:

“‘May his place be deserted;
