Context of Psalms 69:24
22Let their table set before them be a snare, and let it be a trap for their allies. 23Let their eyes grow too dim to see, and let their hips continually quake. Pour out your rage on them, and let your burning anger overtake them. 25Make their fortification desolate; may no one live in their tents. 26For they persecute the one you struck and talk about the pain of those you wounded.
