Psalm 109:6-19
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
6 They say,[a] “Appoint a wicked man against him;
let an accuser stand on his right.(A)
7 When he is tried, let him be found guilty;
let his prayer be counted as sin.(B)
8 May his days be few;
may another seize his position.(C)
9 May his children be orphans
and his wife a widow.(D)
10 May his children wander about and beg;
may they be driven out of[b] the ruins they inhabit.
11 May the creditor seize all that he has;
may strangers plunder the fruits of his toil.(E)
12 May there be no one to do him a kindness
nor anyone to pity his orphaned children.(F)
13 May his posterity be cut off;
may his name be blotted out in the second generation.(G)
14 May the iniquity of his father[c] be remembered before the Lord,
and do not let the sin of his mother be blotted out.(H)
15 Let them be before the Lord continually,
and may his[d] memory be cut off from the earth.(I)
16 For he did not remember to show kindness
but pursued the poor and needy
and the brokenhearted to their death.(J)
17 He loved to curse; let curses come on him.
He did not like blessing; may it be far from him.(K)
18 He clothed himself with cursing as his coat;
may it soak into his body like water,
like oil into his bones.(L)
19 May it be like a garment that he wraps around himself,
like a belt that he wears every day.”

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
16 “Brothers and sisters,[a] the scripture had to be fulfilled, which the Holy Spirit through David foretold concerning Judas, who became a guide for those who arrested Jesus,(A) 17 for he was numbered among us and was allotted his share in this ministry.”(B) 18 (Now this man acquired a field with the reward of his wickedness, and falling headlong, he burst open in the middle, and all his bowels gushed out.(C) 19 This became known to all the residents of Jerusalem, so that the field was called in their language Hakeldama, that is, Field of Blood.) 20 “For it is written in the book of Psalms,
‘Let his house become desolate,
and let there be no one to live in it’;
and
‘Let another take his position of overseer.’(D)
