Psalm 109:14-16
New Catholic Bible
14 “May the iniquity of his ancestors be remembered by the Lord,
and the sin of his mother never be wiped out.
15 May their guilt be continually before the Lord,
and may he banish all remembrance of them from the earth.
16 [a]“For he never thought of showing mercy;
rather, he hounded to death
the poor and the needy and the brokenhearted.
