22 May their table before them become a snare, and for a recompense—for a trap! 23 May their eyes grow dark from seeing, and their backs be bent forever! 24 Pour out upon them Your indignation, and may the burning of Your anger overtake them! 25 May their encampment become desolate; may there be no one dwelling in their tents. 26 For You—the one whom You struck—they pursue, and the pain of those You pierced they recount. 27 May You add iniquity to their iniquity, and do not let them come into Your righteousness! 28 May they be blotted out from the book of the living, and do not let them be written with the righteous! 29 And I am afflicted and pained; may Your salvation, O God, set me on high. 30 I will praise the name of God with a song, and will I magnify Him with thanksgiving. 31 And it is better to YHWH than an ox, a bull horned and hoofed. 32 The humble have seen—they rejoice—you seeking God, your⁺ heart shall live! 33 For YHWH listens to the needy, and he has not despised His captives. 34 Let the heavens and earth shout praise to Him, the seas, and every moving thing in them. 35 For God will save Zion, and He will rebuild the cities of Judah, that they may dwell there and possess it. 36 And the seed of His servants will inherit it, and those loving His name will settle in it. Psalms 69:22-36, Berean Literal Bible. Public domain.
