13 Bring an end to his family,and from now on let him bea forgotten man.
14 “Don't let the Lord forgivethe sins of his parentsand his ancestors.
15 Don't let the Lord forgetthe sins of his family,or let anyone rememberhis family ever lived.
16 He was so cruel to the poor,homeless, and discouragedthat they died young.
17 “He cursed others.Now place a curse on him!He never wished others well.Wish only trouble for him!
18 He cursed others more oftenthan he dressed himself.Let his curses strike him deep,just as water and olive oilsoak through to our bones.
19 Let his curses surround him,just like the clotheshe wears each day.”
