21 You know my reproach, my shame and my dishonour; ♦︎
my adversaries are all in your sight.
22 Reproach has broken my heart; I am full of heaviness. ♦︎
I looked for some to have pity, but there was no one,
neither found I any to comfort me.
23 They gave me gall to eat, ♦︎
and when I was thirsty, they gave me vinegar to drink.
24 Let the table before them be a trap ♦︎
and their sacred feasts a snare.
25 Let their eyes be darkened, that they cannot see, ♦︎
and give them continual trembling in their loins.
26 Pour out your indignation upon them, ♦︎
and let the heat of your anger overtake them.
27 Let their camp be desolate, ♦︎
and let there be no one to dwell in their tents.
28 For they persecute the one whom you have stricken, ♦︎
and increase the sorrows of him whom you have pierced.
29 Lay to their charge guilt upon guilt, ♦︎
and let them not receive your vindication.
30 Let them be wiped out of the book of the living ♦︎
and not be written among the righteous.
