Destroy thou them, O God; let them fall by their own counsels; cast them out in the multitude of their transgressions; for they have rebelled against thee.

For the sin of their mouth and the words of their lips let them even be taken in their pride: and for cursing and lying which they speak.

Consume them in wrath, consume them, that they may not be: and let them know that God ruleth in Jacob unto the ends of the earth. Selah.

Let their table become a snare before them: and that which should have been for their welfare, let it become a trap.

Pour out thine indignation upon them, and let thy wrathful anger take hold of them.

Therefore deliver up their children to the famine, and pour out their blood by the force of the sword; and let their wives be bereaved of their children, and be widows; and let their men be put to death; let their young men be slain by the sword in battle.

As he loved cursing, so let it come unto him: as he delighted not in blessing, so let it be far from him.

Let it be unto him as the garment which covereth him, and for a girdle wherewith he is girded continually.

But do thou for me, O GOD the Lord, for thy name's sake: because thy mercy is good, deliver thou me.
