"May his days be few, and let another take his episcopate."
— Psalms 108:8, Catholic Public Domain Version
“Gilead is mine; Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the strength of mine head; Judah is my lawgiver;”
“Gilead is mine; Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the defence of my head; Judah is my sceptre. ”
“Gilead is mine. Manasseh is mine. Ephraim also is my helmet. Judah is my scepter.”
“Gilead belongs to me, as does Manasseh! Ephraim is my helmet, Judah my royal scepter.”
“May his days be few: and his bishopric let another take.”
“Gilead is mine; Manasseh is mine; Ephraim is the strength of my head; Judah is my law-giver;”
“Gilead is mine; Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the strength of mine head; Judah is my lawgiver;”
And they set evil against me, instead of good, and hatred, in return for my love.
Establish the sinner over him, and let the devil stand at his right hand.
When he is judged, may he go forth in condemnation, and may his prayer be counted as sin.
May his days be few, and let another take his episcopate.
May his sons be orphans, and his wife a widow.
May his sons be carried by those who walk unsteadily, and may they go begging. And may they be cast out of their dwelling places.
May the money lenders scrutinize all his belongings, and let foreigners plunder his labors.
