American Standard Version of 1901
Versliste
Set thou a wicked man over him;And let {Or, Satan Or, an accuser}an adversary stand at his right hand.
When he is judged, let him come forth guilty;And let his prayer {Or, become}be turned into 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 vagabonds, and beg;And let them seek their bread {Or, far from}out of their desolate places.
Let the extortioner {Hebrew: snare.}catch all that he hath;And let strangers make spoil of his labor.
Let there be none to {Or, continued}extend kindness unto him;Neither let there be any to have pity on his fatherless children.
Let his posterity be cut off;In the generation following let their name be blotted out.
Let the iniquity of his fathers be remembered with Jehovah;And let not the sin of his mother be blotted out.
Let them be before Jehovah continually,That he may cut off the memory of them from the earth;
Because he remembered not to show kindness,But persecuted the poor and needy man,And the broken in heart, to slay them.
Yea, he loved cursing, and it came unto him;And he delighted not in blessing, and it was far from him.
He clothed himself also with cursing as with his garment,And it came into his inward parts like water,And like oil into his bones.
Let it be unto him as the raiment wherewith he covereth himself,And for the girdle wherewith he is girded continually.
This is the reward of mine adversaries from Jehovah,And of them that speak evil against my soul.

While he yet spake, behold, a multitude, and he that was called Judas, one of the twelve, went before them; and he drew near unto Jesus to kiss him.
But Jesus said unto him, Judas, {See verse 4.}betrayest thou the Son of man with a kiss?
For it is written in the book of Psalms, {Psalm 69:25}Let his habitation be made desolate,And let no man dwell therein:and, {Psalm 109:8.}His {Greek: overseership.}office let another take.
Let his days be few;And let another take his office.

For the mouth of the wicked and the mouth of deceit have they opened against me:They have spoken {Or, against}unto me with a lying tongue.
They have compassed me about also with words of hatred,And fought against me without a cause.
And they have {Hebrew: laid upon me.}rewarded me evil for good,And hatred for my love.
Because he remembered not to show kindness,But persecuted the poor and needy man,And the broken in heart, to slay them.
