Tehillim 109:20-30 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

20. This is the reward of mine adversaries from Hashem, and of them that speak rah against my nefesh.

21. But Thou O Hashem Adonoi, do with me for the sake of Thy Name; because Thy chesed is tov, deliver Thou me.

22. For I am oni and evyon, and my lev is wounded within me.

23. I am gone like a lengthening tzel (shadow); I am shaken off like the arbeh.

24. My knees are weak from a tzom; and my basar faileth of fatness.

25. I became also a cherpah (reproach) unto them; when they looked upon me, they shaked their heads.

26. Help me, O Hashem Elohai; O hoshi'eini (save me) according to Thy chesed;

27. That they may know that this is Thy Yad; that Thou, Hashem, hast done it.

28. Let them make kelalah (curse), but do Thou make berakhah; when they arise, let them be ashamed; but let Thy eved rejoice.

29. Let mine adversaries be clothed with shame, and let them cover themselves with their own shame, as with a me'il (cloak).

30. I will greatly praise Hashem with my mouth; and, I will praise Him among the multitude.
