8May his life be short; let someone else take over his position.
9May his children be left fatherless, and his wife become a widow.
10May his children be homeless, wandering beggars, driven from their ruined houses.
11May creditors seize all that he owns; may strangers take all that he worked for.
12May no one be kind to him; may no one take pity on his fatherless children.
13May his descendants die; may his family name be wiped out in the next generation.
14May the Lord be reminded of the sins of his fathers; may his mother's sins not be blotted out.
15May their sins be constantly before the Lord; may his name be totally forgotten by people.
16For he didn't think to be kind to others, instead he harassed and killed the poor, the needy, the brokenhearted.
