Psalms 109:1-10

God, I praise you. Do not be silent. Wicked people and liars have spoken against me; they have told lies about me. They have said hateful things about me and attack me for no reason. They attacked me, even though I loved them and prayed for them. I was good to them, but they repay me with evil. I loved them, but they hate me in return. They say about me, “Have an evil person work against him, and let an accuser stand against him. When he is judged, let him be found guilty, and let even his prayers show his guilt. Let his life be cut short, and let another man replace him as leader. Let his children become orphans and his wife a widow. Make his children wander around, begging for food. Let them be forced out of the ruins in which they live.
