Psalms 109
Intro: David complaineth of God's enemies -- Prayeth against them. (To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.)
1 Hold not thy peace, O God of my praise;
2 For the mouth of the wicked and the mouth of the deceitful are opened against me; they have spoken against me with a lying tongue.
3 They compassed me about; they spake against me also, with words of hatred; and fought against me without a cause.
4 And, notwithstanding my love, they are my adversaries; yet I will continue in prayer for them.
5 And they have rewarded me evil for good, and hatred for my love.
6 Set thou a wicked man over them; and let Satan stand at his right hand.
7 When they shall be judged, let them be condemned; and let their prayer become sin.
8 Let their days be few; let another take their office.
