Psalms 69:22 Context
20Reproch hath broken my heart, and I am full of heauines: and I looked for some to take pitie, but there was none;and for comforters, but I found none. 21They gaue mee also gall for my meat, and in my thirst they gaue mee vineger to drinke. 22Let their table become a snare before them: and that which should haue bene for their welfare, let it become atrap. 23Let their eyes be darkened that they see not; and make their loines continually to shake. 24Powre out thine indignation vpon them, and let thy wrathfull anger take hold of them.
