Psalm 69:21 in context

  1. 19You know my reproach, my shame, and my dishonor.
    My adversaries are all before you.
  2. 20Reproach has broken my heart, and I am full of heaviness.
    I looked for some to take pity, but there was none;
    for comforters, but I found none.
  3. 21They also gave me poison for my food.
    In my thirst, they gave me vinegar to drink.
  4. 22Let their table before them become a snare.
    May it become a retribution and a trap.
  5. 23Let their eyes be darkened, so that they can’t see.
    Let their backs be continually bent.
