Psalm 109:13
βLet his posterity be cut off; and in the generation following let their name be blotted out.β
KJV
Read in Psalm 109Meaning
This is genealogical curse language from the ancient world, not permission for ethnic cleansing, forced sterilization, family erasure, or persecution of descendants.
Imprecatory judicial appeal
The speaker voices severe curses and asks God to answer hostile accusation with judgment.
Read carefully
The verse gives no mandate for reproductive coercion, killing, or ethnic persecution.
Reflection
Confine accountability to responsible persons and proven acts.
