Psalms 109:14 - Forerunner Commentary

Psalms 109:14

12 Let there be none to extend mercy to him,
Nor let there be any to favor his fatherless children.

13 ^aLet his¹ posterity be cut off,
And in the generation following let their ^bname be blotted out.

14 ^aLet the iniquity of his fathers be remembered before the Lord,
And let not the sin of his mother ^bbe blotted out.

15 Let them be continually before the Lord,
That He may ^acut off the memory of them from the earth;

16 Because he did not remember to show mercy,
But persecuted the poor and needy man,
That he might even slay the ^abroken in heart.

17 ^aAs he loved cursing, so let it come to him;
As he did not delight in blessing, so let it be far from him.
