22Let the table set for them become a trap and a snare for their friends. 23Let their vision become clouded so that they cannot see. Let their thighs continually shake. Pour your rage on them. Let your burning anger catch up with them. 25Let their camp be deserted and their tents empty. 26They persecute the one you have struck, and they talk about the pain of those you have wounded.
