Imprecate
To imprecate is to invoke or call down (evil or curses), as upon a person.
When Jesus was rejected while attempting to enter a Samaritan town, his disciples James and John asked if He wished them to imprecate the detractors, calling down fire from heaven. (Luke 9:52). No wonder Jesus dubbed the brothers “Boanerges” (“Son of Thunder”)! (Mark 3:17).
