Psalm 109:8
“Let his days be few; and let another take his office.”
KJV
Read in Psalm 109Meaning
The line seeks removal from power within an imprecatory prayer and is later cited in Acts 1:20; it does not authorize assassination or violent seizure of office.
Imprecatory judicial appeal
The speaker voices severe curses and asks God to answer hostile accusation with judgment.
Read carefully
It does not authorize private violence or political assassination.
Reflection
Use lawful accountability, oversight, elections, reporting, or courts as appropriate.
