        • 1. For the director of music. Of David. A psalm. O God, whom I praise, do not remain silent,
            • 2. for wicked and deceitful men have opened their mouths against me; they have spoken against me with lying tongues.
                • 3. With words of hatred they surround me; they attack me without cause.
                    • 4. In return for my friendship they accuse me, but I am a man of prayer.
                        • 5. They repay me evil for good, and hatred for my friendship.
                            • 6. Appoint an evil man to oppose him; let an accuser stand at his right hand.
                                • 7. When he is tried, let him be found guilty, and may his prayers condemn him.
                                    • 8. May his days be few; may another take his place of leadership.
                                        • 9. May his children be fatherless and his wife a widow.
                                            • 10. May his children be wandering beggars; may they be driven from their ruined homes.
                                                • 11. May a creditor seize all he has; may strangers plunder the fruits of his labor.
                                                    • 12. May no one extend kindness to him or take pity on his fatherless children.
                                                        • 13. May his descendants be cut off, their names blotted out from the next generation.
                                                            • 14. May the iniquity of his fathers be remembered before the LORD; may the sin of his mother never be blotted out.
                                                                • 15. May their sins always remain before the LORD, that he may cut off the memory of them from the earth.
                                                                    • 16. For he never thought of doing a kindness, but hounded to death the poor and the needy and the brokenhearted.
                                                                        • 17. He loved to pronounce a curse--may it come on him; he found no pleasure in blessing--may it be far from him.
                                                                            • 18. He wore cursing as his garment; it entered into his body like water, into his bones like oil.
                                                                                • 19. May it be like a cloak wrapped about him, like a belt tied forever around him.
                                                                                    • 20. May this be the LORD'S payment to my accusers, to those who speak evil of me.
                                                                                        • 21. But you, O Sovereign LORD, deal well with me for your name's sake; out of the goodness of your love, deliver me.
                                                                                            • 22. For I am poor and needy, and my heart is wounded within me.
                                                                                                • 23. I fade away like an evening shadow; I am shaken off like a locust.
                                                                                                    • 24. My knees give way from fasting; my body is thin and gaunt.
                                                                                                        • 25. I am an object of scorn to my accusers; when they see me, they shake their heads.
                                                                                                            • 26. Help me, O LORD my God; save me in accordance with your love.
                                                                                                                • 27. Let them know that it is your hand, that you, O LORD, have done it.
                                                                                                                    • 28. They may curse, but you will bless; when they attack they will be put to shame, but your servant will rejoice.
                                                                                                                        • 29. My accusers will be clothed with disgrace and wrapped in shame as in a cloak.
                                                                                                                            • 30. With my mouth I will greatly extol the LORD; in the great throng I will praise him.
                                                                                                                                • 31. For he stands at the right hand of the needy one, to save his life from those who condemn him.
