Psalm 109:16-18
Lexham English Bible
16 because he did not remember to show loyal love,
but he pursued anyone,[a] poor or needy
or brokenhearted, to slay them.
17 Because he loved cursing, let it come upon him.
Because he did not delight in blessing,
let it be far from him.
18 Because he wore a curse as his robe,
let it enter his body[b] like water,
and into his bones like oil.
