Psalm 109:16-18
Modern English Version
16 For he did not remember to show kindness,
but pursued the poor and needy and broken-hearted
to their death.
17 As he loved cursing,
so let it come over him;
as he did not delight in blessing,
so let it be far from him.
18 As he clothed himself with cursing like a garment,
so let it soak into him like water,
and like oil into his bones.
Psalm 109:16-18
New International Version
16 For he never thought of doing a kindness,
but hounded to death the poor
and the needy(A) and the brokenhearted.(B)
17 He loved to pronounce a curse—
may it come back on him.(C)
He found no pleasure in blessing—
may it be far from him.
18 He wore cursing(D) as his garment;
it entered into his body like water,(E)
into his bones like oil.
