6Set a wicked man over him,

And let ean 1accuser stand at his right hand.

7When he is judged, let him be found guilty,

And flet his prayer become sin.

8Let his days be gfew,

And hlet another take his office.

9iLet his children be fatherless,

And his wife a widow.

10Let his children 2continually be vagabonds, and beg;

Let them 3seek their bread also from their desolate places.

11jLet the creditor seize all that he has,

And let strangers plunder his labor.

12Let there be none to extend mercy to him,

Nor let there be any to favor his fatherless children.

13kLet his 4posterity be cut off,

And in the generation following let their lname be blotted out.

14mLet the iniquity of his fathers be remembered before the Lord,

And let not the sin of his mother nbe blotted out.

15Let them be continually before the Lord,

That He may ocut off the memory of them from the earth;

16Because he did not remember to show mercy,

But persecuted the poor and needy man,

That he might even slay the pbroken in heart.

17qAs he loved cursing, so let it come to him;

As he did not delight in blessing, so let it be far from him.

18As he clothed himself with cursing as with his garment,

So let it renter his body like water,

And like oil into his bones.

19Let it be to him like the garment which covers him,

And for a belt with which he girds himself continually.
