詩篇第109篇

《詩篇》第109篇 （在通用希臘語《七十士譯本》中被列為第108篇）是《希伯來聖經·詩篇》中的一篇，有31節。作者是大衛王，交於伶長用。這詩篇是少數《詩篇》中記錄的詛咒。

第8節的「願他的年日短少，願別人得他的職分。」在使徒行傳1:16-26，使徒們選出頂替加略人猶大的人之前，被聖彼得引述。

因第8節的「職分」在英文─「office」─也可以代表官職，美國的基要派基督徒，包括政客如Michael O'Neal和大衛·珀杜，常常用這詩篇來詛咒歐巴馬。

## 譯文

### 英語

- Hold not thy peace, O God of my praise;
- For the mouth of the wicked and the mouth of the deceitful are opened against me: they have spoken against me with a lying tongue.
- They compassed me about also with words of hatred; and fought against me without a cause.
- For my love they are my adversaries: but I give myself unto prayer.
- And they have rewarded me evil for good, and hatred for my love.
- Set thou a wicked man over him: and let Satan stand at his right hand.
- When he shall be judged, let him be condemned: and let his prayer become sin.
- Let his days be few; and let another take his office.
- Let his children be fatherless, and his wife a widow.
- Let his children be continually vagabonds, and beg: let them seek their bread also out of their desolate places.
- Let the extortioner catch all that he hath; and let the strangers spoil his labour.
- Let there be none to extend mercy unto him: neither let there be any to favour his fatherless children.
- Let his posterity be cut off; and in the generation following let their name be blotted out.
- Let the iniquity of his fathers be remembered with the Lord; and let not the sin of his mother be blotted out.
- Let them be before the Lord continually, that he may cut off the memory of them from the earth.
- Because that he remembered not to shew mercy, but persecuted the poor and needy man, that he might even slay the broken in heart.
- As he loved cursing, so let it come unto him: as he delighted not in blessing, so let it be far from him.
- As he clothed himself with cursing like as with his garment, so let it come into his bowels like water, and like oil into his bones.
- Let it be unto him as the garment which covereth him, and for a girdle wherewith he is girded continually.
- Let this be the reward of mine adversaries from the Lord, and of them that speak evil against my soul.
- But do thou for me, O God the Lord, for thy name's sake: because thy mercy is good, deliver thou me.
- For I am poor and needy, and my heart is wounded within me.
- I am gone like the shadow when it declineth: I am tossed up and down as the locust.
- My knees are weak through fasting; and my flesh faileth of fatness.
- I became also a reproach unto them: when they looked upon me they shaked their heads.
- Help me, O Lord my God: O save me according to thy mercy:
- That they may know that this is thy hand; that thou, Lord, hast done it.
- Let them curse, but bless thou: when they arise, let them be ashamed; but let thy servant rejoice.
- Let mine adversaries be clothed with shame, and let them cover themselves with their own confusion, as with a mantle.
- I will greatly praise the Lord with my mouth; yea, I will praise him among the multitude.
- For he shall stand at the right hand of the poor, to save him from those that condemn his soul.
