Sen. David Perdue (R-GA) joked at a conservative Christian event that he prays President Obama’s days will be “few,” the Huffington Post reports.

Said Perdue: “We should pray like Psalms 109:8 says. It says: ‘Let his days be few and let another have his office.'”

Perdue did not continue, but Psalm 109 is a death wish for one of David’s enemies.

It continues: “Let his children be fatherless; and his wife a widow. Let his children wander about and beg; and let them seek sustenance far from their ruined homes. Let the creditor seize all that he has; and let strangers plunder the product of his labor. Let there be none to extend lovingkindness to him; nor any to be gracious to his fatherless children. Let his posterity be cut off; in a following generation let their name be blotted out.“
