Psalms 69:20-22

20 ^aReproaches have broken my heart,
so that I am in ^bdespair.
I ^clooked for ^dpity, but there was none,
and for ^ecomforters, but I found none.
21 They gave me ^fpoison for food,
and for my thirst they gave me ^gsour wine to drink.
22 ^hLet their own ⁱtable before them become a snare;
^jand when they are at peace, let it become a trap. ^{▼▼Hebrew; a slight revocalization yields (compare Septuagint, Syriac, Jerome) a snare, and retribution and a trap}
