Psalm 109:17-19

Help Me, O Lord My God

¹⁷ _v He loved to curse; let curses come ₁ upon him!
He did not delight in blessing; may it be far ₂ from him!
¹⁸ He _w clothed himself with cursing as his coat;
may it _x soak ₃ into his body like water,
like oil into his bones!
¹⁹ May it be like a garment that he wraps around him,
like a belt that he puts on every day!
