Psalm 109:12

Verse 12 of 31. The 109th of 150 chapters in Psalms, in Poetry and Wisdom.

8Let his days be few. Let another take his office.

9Let his children be fatherless, and his wife a widow.

10Let his children be wandering beggars. Let them be sought from their ruins.

11Let the creditor seize all that he has. Let strangers plunder the fruit of his labor.

12Let there be no one to extend kindness to him, neither let there be anyone to have pity on his fatherless children.

13Let his posterity be cut off. In the generation following let their name be blotted out.

14Let the iniquity of his fathers be remembered by the LORD. Don’t let the sin of his mother be blotted out.

15Let them be before the LORD continually, that he may cut off their memory from the earth;

16because he didn’t remember to show kindness, but persecuted the poor and needy man, the broken in heart, to kill them.
