Context of Psalms 69:24
22May their table [with all its abundance and luxury] become a snare [to them]; And when they are in peace [secure at their sacrificial feasts], may it become a trap. 23May their eyes be dimmed so that they cannot see, And make their loins shake continually [in terror and weakness]. Pour out Your indignation on them, And let [the fierceness of] Your burning anger overtake them. 25May their encampment be desolate; May no one dwell in their tents. 26For they have persecuted him whom You have struck, And they tell of the pain of those whom You have pierced and wounded.

- Barnes’ Notes on the Bible · v. 24Pour out thine indignation upon them - That is, Punish them for their sins; or, do justice to them.
