Psalm 109:17
Print
As he loved cursing, so let it come unto him; as he delighted not in blessing, so let it be far from him.
Yea, he loved cursing, and it came unto him; And he delighted not in blessing, and it was far from him.
He also loved cursing, and it came [back] to him; He did not delight in blessing, so it was far from him.
Yes, he loved cursing, and it came [back] upon him; he delighted not in blessing, and it was far from him.
As he loved cursing, so let it come unto him: as he delighted not in blessing, so let it be far from him.
He loved cursing—let it fall on him; he took no delight in blessing—let it be far from him.
Since he loved to curse, let it come back on him! Since he didn’t care much for blessing, let it be far away from him!
He loved cursing; may it recoil on him! He didn’t like blessing; may it stay far from him!
“He cursed others. Now place a curse on him! He never wished others well. Wish only trouble for him!
And he loved cursing; so let it come unto him. And he delighted not in blessing; and let it be far from him.
He loved to curse others, so let those bad things happen to him. He never blessed others, so don’t let good things happen to him.
He loved to curse people. Now may those curses happen to him! He never asked God to bless other people, so nobody will ask God to bless him!
Since he loved cursing, so let it fall on him. He found no pleasure in blessing, so let it be far from him.
He loved to curse; let curses come upon him! He did not delight in blessing; may it be far from him!

Because he loved cursing, let it come upon him. Because he did not delight in blessing, let it be far from him.
He loved to curse others; now you curse him. He never blessed others; now don’t you bless him.
Send the Evil One to accuse my accusing judge; dispatch Satan to prosecute him. When he’s judged, let the verdict be “Guilty,” and when he prays, let his prayer turn to sin. Give him a short life, and give his job to somebody else. Make orphans of his children, dress his wife in widow’s black; Turn his children into begging street urchins, evicted from their homes—homeless. May the bank foreclose and wipe him out, and strangers, like vultures, pick him clean. May there be no one around to help him out, no one willing to give his orphans a break. Chop down his family tree so that nobody even remembers his name. But erect a memorial to the sin of his father, and make sure his mother’s name is there, too— Their sins recorded forever before God, but they themselves sunk in oblivion. That’s all he deserves since he was never once kind, hounded the afflicted and heartbroken to their graves. Since he loved cursing so much, let curses rain down; Since he had no taste for blessing, let blessings flee far from him. He dressed up in curses like a fine suit of clothes; he drank curses, took his baths in curses. So give him a gift—a costume of curses; he can wear curses every day of the week! That’s what they’ll get, those out to get me— an avalanche of just deserts from God.
As he loved cursing, so let it come over him; as he did not delight in blessing, so let it be far from him.
He loved to put curses on others, so he, too, was cursed. He did not like to bless others, so he never received a blessing.

He also loved cursing, so it came to him; And he did not delight in blessing, so it was far from him.
He loved to level curses at others; may they recoil on him. He took no pleasure in blessing; may no blessing be his.
He loved to put curses on others, so let those same curses fall on him. He did not like to bless others, so do not let good things happen to him.
He loved to curse others, so those curses have come upon him. He had no desire to bless anyone, so he has experienced no blessings.

And he loveth reviling, and it meeteth him, And he hath not delighted in blessing, And it is far from him.
