0 To the Chief Musician, A Psalm of David.
1 Do not keep silent, O God of my praise.
2 Because, the mouth of the wicked and the mouth of the deceitful are opened against me; they have spoken against me with a lying tongue.
3 They also surrounded me with words of hatred, and fought against me without a cause.
4 For my love they are my adversaries, but I give myself to prayer.
5 And they have rewarded me evil for good, and hatred for my love.
6 Set a wicked man over him, and let Satan stand at his right hand.
7 When he is judged, let him be condemned, and let his prayer become sin.
8 Let his days be few, and let another take his office.
9 Let his children be fatherless, and his wife a widow.
10 Let his children continually be vagabonds, and beg; let them seek their bread also out of their desolate places.
11 Let the extortioner confiscate all that he has, and let strangers plunder his labor.
12 Let there be none to extend mercy to him, neither let there be any to favor his fatherless children.
13 Let his posterity be cut off, and in the generation following let their name be blotted out.
14 Let the iniquity of his fathers be remembered by the Lord, and do not let not the sin of his mother be blotted out.
15 Let them be before the LORD continually, that He may cut off the memory of them from the earth;
16 Because he did not remember to show mercy, but persecuted the poor and needy man, that he might even slay the broken in heart.
17 As he loved cursing, so let it come to him; as he did not delight in blessing, so let it be far from him.
18 As he clothed himself with cursing as with his garment, so let it enter his innermost being like water, and like oil into his bones.
19 Let it be to him like the garment which covers him, and for a belt which he is continually bound with.
20 Let this be the reward from the LORD to my adversaries, and to those who speak evil against my soul.
21 But You do for me for Your name’s sake, O God the Lord; because Your mercy is good, You deliver me.
22 Because, I am poor and needy, and my heart is wounded within me.
23 I am gone like a shadow when it goes down; I am tossed up and down like the locust.
24 My knees are weak through fasting, and my flesh fatness diminishes.
25 I also have become a reproach to them; when they look upon me, they shake their heads.
26 Help me, O LORD my God! O, save me according to Your mercy,
27 that they may know that this is Your hand, that You, LORD, have done it.
28 Let them curse, but You bless; when they arise, let them be ashamed, but let Your servant rejoice.
29 Let my accusers be clothed with shame, and let them cover themselves with their own confusion as with a mantle.
30 I will greatly praise the LORD with my mouth; yes, I will praise Him among the multitude.
31 Because, He will stand at the right hand of the poor, to save him from those who condemn his soul.
