RF PSA 109:1 By David, to his Bandmaster.
STANZA 1.
My GOD! when I pray be not silent;
RF PSA 109:2 Against me the wicked and bad open mouth,
With false tongue about me they speak,
RF PSA 109:3 And with venomous words they surround,
And assail me without any cause!
RF PSA 109:4 STANZA 2.
In return for my love, they revile,—
And yet I had pleaded for them!
RF PSA 109:5 They return to me evil for good,
And hatred instead of my love.
RF PSA 109:6 Let Sin have the mastery of them,
And Satan stand at their right hand.
RF PSA 109:7 In judgment be found in the wrong,
And their plea be considered a crime.
RF PSA 109:8 Let their days be but few;
Give their Office to others,
RF PSA 109:9 Let their children be orphans,
And wives, widows in want!
RF PSA 109:10 Their sons wander and beg,
And skulk amongst ruins!
RF PSA 109:11 STANZA 3.
Let usurers seize all they have,
And their earnings by strangers be robbed;
RF PSA 109:12 Let no kindness be poured out for them,
Nor pity their orphans be shown.
RF PSA 109:13 But let their posterity fail;—
Blot their name in the following age!—
RF PSA 109:14 The LORD of their father's crimes think,
And their mother's sins never blot out!—
RF PSA 109:15 Let them always be clear to the LORD,
But their memory erased from the earth;
RF PSA 109:16 For they thought not of merciful acts;
But pursued the poor desolate man,
And murdered the broken in heart!
RF PSA 109:17 STANZA 4.
He loved cursing:—so let it meet him,
Hated blessing:—so drive it away.
RF PSA 109:18 In cursing he clothed like a cloak,
And took it like drink to his breast,
It entered like oil to his bones!
RF PSA 109:19 Let it be like the 'clothing he wears,
And the belt that encircles his waist!—
RF PSA 109:20 Thus let the LORD pay to my foes,
Who speak to do wrong to my life!
RF PSA 109:21 STANZA 5.
But You work for me, LIVING LORD,
For your NAME, for your Mercy relieves,
RF PSA 109:22 Whilst I am but wretched and poor,
And my heart is depressed in my breast.
RF PSA 109:23 Like a shadow that stretches I pass,
Like a locust I'm tossed up and down!
RF PSA 109:24 STANZA 6.
My knees shook from fasting,
Body wasted from fat!
RF PSA 109:25 To them I became a contempt,
They looked on me shaking their heads!
RF PSA 109:26 O comfort me, my LIVING GOD,
And in your sweet Mercy protect;
RF PSA 109:27 And teach me that this was Your hand,
That You, LORD, have done it alone.
RF PSA 109:28 And that tho' they curse:—You will bless!
They rise but to fall:—but Your servant can smile.
RF PSA 109:29 O clothe my accuser in shame,
And wrap like a shawl in disgrace.
RF PSA 109:30 ENVOY.
I will thank the LORD much with my mouth
In the midst of the crowd I will praise,
RF PSA 109:31 For He stands at the hand of the poor,
To save from the Judges his life.
