Psalm 109:16-18

The Voice

¹⁶ Because it never occurred to him to show compassion;
    instead, he oppressed the poor, afflicted,
    and brokenhearted and sent them to their death.
¹⁷ He loved to invoke a curse—so let his curses come back to him.
    He preferred not to speak a blessing—so let all blessings be far from him.
¹⁸ He wrapped himself with cursing, draped around him like a cape;
    may it flood his body like water
    and seep into his bones like oil.
