International Standard Version
Psalm 109:16-18
International Standard Version
16 For he didn’t think to extend gracious love;
he harassed to death the poor, the needy, and the broken hearted.[a]
17 He loved to curse—may his curses[b] return upon him!
He took no delight in blessing others[c]—
so may blessings[d] be far from him.
18 He wore curses like a garment—
may they[e] enter his inner being like water
and his bones like oil.
