Bible verse
May their table become a snare; may it be a retribution and a trap.
Psalm 69:22 · BSB
The verses around it, from Psalm 69.
18 Draw near to my soul and redeem me; ransom me because of my foes.
19 You know my reproach, my shame and disgrace. All my adversaries are before You.
20 Insults have broken my heart, and I am in despair. I looked for sympathy, but there was none, for comforters, but I found no one.
21 They poisoned my food with gall and gave me vinegar to quench my thirst.
22 May their table become a snare; may it be a retribution and a trap.
23 May their eyes be darkened so they cannot see, and their backs be bent forever.
24 Pour out Your wrath upon them, and let Your burning anger overtake them.
25 May their place be deserted; let there be no one to dwell in their tents.
26 For they persecute the one You struck and recount the pain of those You wounded.
