Psalm 109:18-20
Contemporary English Version

18 He cursed others more often
    than he dressed himself.
Let his curses strike him deep,
just as water and olive oil
    soak through to our bones.
19 Let his curses surround him,
just like the belt and clothes
    he wears each day.”

20 Those are the cruel things
my enemies wish for me.
    Let it all happen to them!

Psalm 109:18-20
New International Version

18 He wore cursing(A) as his garment;
    it entered into his body like water,(B)
    into his bones like oil.
19 May it be like a cloak wrapped(C) about him,
    like a belt tied forever around him.
20 May this be the Lord’s payment(D) to my accusers,
    to those who speak evil(E) of me.
