Psalm 69:19-28

New International Version

¹⁹ You know how I am scorned,^(A) disgraced and shamed;
    all my enemies are before you.
²⁰ Scorn has broken my heart
    and has left me helpless;
I looked for sympathy, but there was none,
    for comforters,^(B) but I found none.^(C)
21 They put gall in my food
    and gave me vinegar^(D) for my thirst.^(E)

²² May the table set before them become a snare;
    may it become retribution and^[a] a trap.^(F)
23 May their eyes be darkened so they cannot see,
    and their backs be bent forever.^(G)
24 Pour out your wrath^(H) on them;
    let your fierce anger overtake them.
²⁵ May their place be deserted;^(I)
    let there be no one to dwell in their tents.^(J)
26 For they persecute those you wound
    and talk about the pain of those you hurt.^(K)
27 Charge them with crime upon crime;^(L)
    do not let them share in your salvation.^(M)
28 May they be blotted out of the book of life^(N)
    and not be listed with the righteous.^(O)
