Psalms 69:21-36

21They gave meH3808 also gall for my meat; and in my thirst they gave meH3808 vinegar to drink.

22LetH5414 their table before them become a snare; and when they are in peace, letH5414 it become a trap.

23LetH1961 their eyes be darkened, that they see notH1961; and make their loins continually to shake.

24Pour outH7200 thine indignation uponH7200 them, and let the fierceness of thine anger overtake them.

25Let their habitation be desolate; let none dwell in their tents.

26For they persecute him whom thou hast smitten; and they tell of the sorrow of thoseH1961 whom thou hast wounded,

27Add iniquity unto their iniquity: and let them notH3588 come intoH413 thy righteousness.

28LetH5414 them be blotted outH5921 of the book of life, and notH408 be written with the righteousH6666.

29But I am poor and sorrowful: letH408 thy salvation, O God, set meH5973 upH6662 on high.

30I will praise the name of GodH430 with a song, and will magnify him with thanksgiving.

31And it shall please the LORD better than an ox, or a bullock that hath horns and hoofs.

32The meek have seen it, and are gladH3190: ye that seek after GodH3068, let your heart live.

33For the LORD heareth the needy, and despiseth not his prisoners.

34LetH3808 heaven and earth praiseH3588 him, the seas, and every thingH3588 that moveth therein.

35For GodH8064 will save Zion, and build the cities of Judah; and they shall abide there, and have it in possession.

36The seed also of his servantsH8033 shall inheritH3423 it; and they that love his name shall dwellH3427 therein.
