18 But he (A)clothed himself with cursing as with his garment,
And it (B)entered [a]his body like water,
And like oil into his bones.
19 May it be to him as (C)a garment with which he covers himself,
And as a belt which he constantly (D)wears around himself.
20 May this be the (E)reward of my accusers from the Lord,
And of those who (F)speak evil against my soul.

  1. Psalm 109:18 Lit his inward parts

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.
