May his descendants be cut off, their names blotted out from the next generation. May the iniquity of his fathers be remembered before the LORD; may the sin of his mother never be blotted out.

May his posterity be cut off; may his name be blotted out in the second generation! May the iniquity of his fathers be remembered before the LORD, and let not the sin of his mother be blotted out!

May all his offspring die. May his family name be blotted out in the next generation. May the LORD never forget the sins of his fathers; may his mother’s sins never be erased from the record.

Let the line of his descendants be cut off; let their name be blotted out in the next generation.  Let the iniquity of his fathers be remembered before the  LORD,  and do not let his mother’s sin be blotted out.

Let his posterity be cut off; And in the generation following let their name be blotted out. Let the iniquity of his fathers be remembered with the LORD; And let not the sin of his mother be blotted out.

Let his posterity be cut off, And in the generation following let their name be blotted out. Let the iniquity of his fathers be remembered before the LORD, And let not the sin of his mother be blotted out.

Send the Evil One to accuse my accusing judge; dispatch Satan to prosecute him. When he’s judged, let the verdict be “Guilty,” and when he prays, let his prayer turn to sin. Give him a short life, and give his job to somebody else. Make orphans of his children, dress his wife in widow’s black; Turn his children into begging street urchins, evicted from their homes—homeless. May the bank foreclose and wipe him out, and strangers, like vultures, pick him clean. May there be no one around to help him out, no one willing to give his orphans a break. Chop down his family tree so that nobody even remembers his name. But erect a memorial to the sin of his father, and make sure his mother’s name is there, too— Their sins recorded forever before GOD, but they themselves sunk in oblivion. That’s all he deserves since he was never once kind, hounded the afflicted and heartbroken to their graves. Since he loved cursing so much, let curses rain down; Since he had no taste for blessing, let blessings flee far from him. He dressed up in curses like a fine suit of clothes; he drank curses, took his baths in curses. So give him a gift—a costume of curses; he can wear curses every day of the week! That’s what they’ll get, those out to get me— an avalanche of just deserts from GOD.

May his descendants be eliminated; May their name be wiped out in a following generation. ¶May the guilt of his fathers be remembered before the LORD, And do not let the sin of his mother be wiped out.

Let his descendants be cut off, And in the following generation let their name be blotted out. ¶Let the wickedness of his fathers be remembered by the LORD; And do not let the sin of his mother be blotted out.

May his descendants be cut off! May the memory of them be wiped out by the time the next generation arrives! May his ancestors’ sins be remembered by the LORD! May his mother’s sin not be forgotten!
