Psalms 109
1 To the choirmaster of David a psalm O God of praise my may not you be silent.
| למנצח לדוד מזמור אלהי תהלתי אל תחרש׃ |
2 For [the] mouth of [the] wicked and a mouth of deceit on me they have opened they have spoken with me a tongue of falsehood.
| כי פי רשע ופי מרמה עלי פתחו דברו אתי לשון שקר׃ |
3 And words of hatred they have surrounded me and they have fought against me without cause.
| ודברי שנאה סבבוני וילחמוני חנם׃ |
4 In place of love my they accuse me and I [am] prayer.
| תחת אהבתי ישטנוני ואני תפלה׃ |
5 And they have put on me evil in place of good and hatred in place of love my.
| וישימו עלי רעה תחת טובה ושנאה תחת אהבתי׃ |
6 Appoint on him a wicked [person] and an accuser let him stand on right [hand] his.
| הפקד עליו רשע ושטן יעמד על ימינו׃ |
7 When is judged he let him come forth guilty and prayer his let it become sin.
| בהשפטו יצא רשע ותפלתו תהיה לחטאה׃ |
8 May they be days his few office his may he take another.
| יהיו ימיו מעטים פקדתו יקח אחר׃ |
9 May they be children his fatherless ones and wife his a widow.
| יהיו בניו יתומים ואשתו אלמנה׃ |
10 And really may they wander children his and they will beg and they will seek away from ruins their.
| ונוע ינועו בניו ושאלו ודרשו מחרבותיהם׃ |
11 May he strike a creditor to all that [belongs] to him and may they plunder strangers property his.
| ינקש נושה לכל אשר לו ויבזו זרים יגיעו׃ |
12 May not it belong to him [one who] prolongs loyalty and may not it belong [one who] shows favor to fatherless children his.
| אל יהי לו משך חסד ואל יהי חונן ליתומיו׃ |
13 May it be posterity his to cut off in a generation another may it be wiped out name their.
| יהי אחריתו להכרית בדור אחר ימח שמם׃ |
14 May it be remembered - [the] iniquity of ancestors his to Yahweh and [the] sin of mother his may not it be wiped out.
| יזכר עון אבתיו אל יהוה וחטאת אמו אל תמח׃ |
15 Let them be before Yahweh continually and may he cut off from [the] earth memory their.
| יהיו נגד יהוה תמיד ויכרת מארץ זכרם׃ |
16 Because that - not he remembered to do loyalty and he harassed anyone poor and needy and disheartened of heart to put to [them] death.
| יען אשר לא זכר עשות חסד וירדף איש עני ואביון ונכאה לבב למותת׃ |
17 And he loved a curse and it came to him and not he delighted in blessing and it was far from him.
| ויאהב קללה ותבואהו ולא חפץ בברכה ותרחק ממנו׃ |
18 And he put on a curse like garment his and it went like water in inward part[s] his and like oil in bones his.
| וילבש קללה כמדו ותבא כמים בקרבו וכשמן בעצמותיו׃ |
19 May it be for him like a garment [which] he wraps himself and to a waistband [which] continually he girds on it.
| תהי לו כבגד יעטה ולמזח תמיד יחגרה׃ |
20 This [be] [the] wage[s] of accusers my from with Yahweh and those [who] speak evil on self my.
| זאת פעלת שטני מאת יהוה והדברים רע על נפשי׃ |
21 And you - O Yahweh O Lord deal with me for [the] sake of name your for [is] good covenant loyalty your deliver me.
| ואתה יהוה אדני עשה אתי למען שמך כי טוב חסדך הצילני׃ |
22 For [am] poor and needy I and heart my someone has pierced in inner being my.
| כי עני ואביון אנכי ולבי חלל בקרבי׃ |
23 Like a shadow when stretches out it I have vanished I have been shaken off like locust.
| כצל כנטותו נהלכתי ננערתי כארבה׃ |
24 Knees my they have staggered from fasting and flesh my it has become lean from fatness.
| ברכי כשלו מצום ובשרי כחש משמן׃ |
25 And I - I have become a reproach to them they see me they shake! head their.
| ואני הייתי חרפה להם יראוני יניעון ראשם׃ |
26 Help me O Yahweh God my save me according to covenant loyalty your.
| עזרני יהוה אלהי הושיעני כחסדך׃ |
27 So they may know that [is] hand your this you O Yahweh you have done it.
| וידעו כי ידך זאת אתה יהוה עשיתה׃ |
28 They will curse they and you you will bless they have arisen - and they have been ashamed and servant your he will rejoice.
| יקללו המה ואתה תברך קמו ויבשו ועבדך ישמח׃ |
29 May they be clothed accusers my ignominy and may they be wrapped like robe shame their.
| ילבשו שוטני כלמה ויעטו כמעיל בשתם׃ |
30 I will give thanks to Yahweh exceedingly with mouth my and in among many [people] I will praise him.
| אודה יהוה מאד בפי ובתוך רבים אהללנו׃ |
31 For he stands to [the] right [hand] of [the] needy to save [him] from [those who] judge self his.
| כי יעמד לימין אביון להושיע משפטי נפשו׃ |
