Psalms 109:5

And they have rewarded me evil for good
For the good words and sound doctrine he delivered to them; for the good works and miracles he wrought among them, to the healing of them; see ( John 10:32 ) .

And hatred for my love;
he came to seek and save that which was lost, and yet they hated him, and would not have him to rule over them, ( Luke 19:10 Luke 19:14 ) .

Psalms 109:5 In-Context

3 barking their hate, nipping my heels - and for no reason!

4 I loved them and now they slander me - yes, me! - and treat my prayer like a crime;

5 They return my good with evil, they return my love with hate.

6 Send the Evil One to accuse my accusing judge; dispatch Satan to prosecute him.

7 When he's judged, let the verdict be, "Guilty," and when he prays, let his prayer turn to sin.
