May all who hate Zion be put to shame and turned backward! Let them be like the grass on the housetops, which withers before it grows up, with which the reaper does not fill his hand nor the binder of sheaves his arms, nor do those who pass by say, "The blessing of the LORD be upon you! We bless you in the name of the LORD!"
Lord, You instruct me to pray for those who curse and prosecute Your people; sometimes that is exceedingly difficult. However, difficult or not, it is my duty to pray for the salvation of those who hate those whom You have called. Another part of the unceasing prayer task.
