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.

New Defender's Study Bible Notes

109:7 prayer become sin. There are occasions when praying is sinful hypocrisy. Note Joshua 7:10,11; Psalm 66:18; Proverbs 28:9; Matthew 23:14, for example.


109:8 another take his office. This particular imprecation was specifically carried out in the case of Judas (Acts 1:20).
