Psalms 109:17 - Jamieson, Fausset, and Brown

Psalms 109:17

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.

18 As he clothed himself with cursing as with his garment,
So let it ^aenter his body like water,
And like oil into his bones.

19 Let it be to him like the garment which covers him,
And for a belt with which he girds himself continually.

20 Let this be the Lord’s reward to my accusers,
And to those who speak evil against my person.

21 But You, O GOD the Lord,
Deal with me for Your name’s sake;
Because Your mercy is good, deliver me.

22 For I am poor and needy,
And my heart is wounded within me.

23 I am gone ^alike a shadow when it lengthens;
I am shaken off like a locust.
