Psalm 109:17 in 6 English translations. Each links through to the full chapter for context.

New International Version (NIV)

17He loved to pronounce a curse—

may it come back on him.

He found no pleasure in blessing—

may it be far from him.

17He also loved cursing, so it came to him;

And he did not delight in blessing, so it was far from him.

17He also loved cursing, so it came to him;

And he did not delight in blessing, so it was far from him.

17He also loved cursing, and it came [back] to him;

He did not delight in blessing, so it was far from him.

17The cursing that he loved,

may it fall on him;

the blessing in which he refused to delight,

may it be far from him.

17They loved to curse others.

May their curses come back on them.

They didn’t find any pleasure in giving anyone their blessing.

May no blessing ever come to them.
