04:15prayer will be regarded as sinful may his days be few may another take his job may his children be
04:24fatherless and his wife a widow may his children roam around begging asking for handouts as they leave their
04:33ruined home may the creditor sees all he owns may strangers loot his property may no one show him

05:22he loved to curse others so those curses have come back upon him he had no desire to bless anyone
05:29so he has experienced no blessings
05:34he has made cursing a way of life so curses poured into his stomach like water and seeped into his
05:41bones
05:41like oil may a curse attach itself to him like a garment one puts on or a belt one wears
05:50continually
05:52may the Lord repay my accusers in this way those who say evil things about me

06:29I am disdained by them when they see me they shake their heads
06:34help me O Lord my God because you are faithful to me deliver me
06:39then they will realize this is your work and that you Lord have accomplished it
06:45they curse but you will bless when they attack they will be humiliated but your servant will rejoice
06:53my accusers will be covered with shame and draped in humiliation as if it were a robe
07:00I will thank the Lord profusely in the middle of a crowd I will praise him
07:06because he stands at the right hand of the needy to deliver him from those who threaten his life
