Psalm 109:17-19
International Children’s Bible
17 He loved to put curses on others.
So let those same curses fall on him.
He did not like to bless others.
So do not let good things happen to him.
18 He cursed others as often as he wore clothes.
Cursing others filled his body and his life,
like drinking water and using olive oil.
19 So let curses cover him like clothes.
Let them wrap around him like a belt.”
Psalm 109:17-19
New International Version
17 He loved to pronounce a curse—
may it come back on him.(A)
He found no pleasure in blessing—
may it be far from him.
18 He wore cursing(B) as his garment;
it entered into his body like water,(C)
into his bones like oil.
19 May it be like a cloak wrapped(D) about him,
like a belt tied forever around him.
