Psalm 109:17

Berean Standard Bible (BSB)

The cursing that he loved, may it fall on him; the blessing in which he refused to delight, may it be far from him.

In context

15 May their sins always remain before the LORD, that He may cut off their memory from the earth.

16 For he never thought to show kindness, but pursued the poor and needy and brokenhearted, even to their death.

17 The cursing that he loved, may it fall on him; the blessing in which he refused to delight, may it be far from him.

18 The cursing that he wore like a coat, may it soak into his body like water, and into his bones like oil.

19 May it be like a robe wrapped about him, like a belt tied forever around him.
