Salmos 109:15 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 109:15

Let them be before the Lord continually
And not cast behind his back, or into the depths of the sea, never to be seen more, as sins are when forgiven; but be always in sight, as loathsome and abominable, and causing those that committed them to be abhorred for them; and be before him, as a Judge, to examine them, the nature and kind of them, and to condemn and punish for them; see ( Exodus 20:5 ) . The Targum is,

``let them be before the Word of the Lord always;''

see ( Hebrews 4:13 ) .

That he may cut off the memory of them from the earth;
so that they may not be remembered with any applause, or their name spoken of with any commendation; see ( Job 18:17 ) .

14 Venga en memoria cerca de Jehová la maldad de sus padres, Y el pecado de su madre no sea borrado.
15 Estén siempre delante de Jehová, Y él corte de la tierra su memoria.
16 Por cuanto no se acordo de hacer misericordia, Y persiguió al hombre afligido y menesteroso Y quebrantado de corazón, para matar lo.
17 Y amó la maldición, y vínole; Y no quiso la bendición, y ella se alejó de él.
