18 Draw nigh unto my soul, and redeem it; deliver me because of mine enemies.
19 Thou hast known my reproach, and my shame, and my dishonor; mine adversaries are all before thee.
20 Reproach hath broken my heart; and I am full of heaviness; and I looked for some to take pity, but there was none; and for comforters, but I found none.
21 They gave me also gall for my meat; and in my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink.
22 Let their table become a snare before them; and that which should have been for their welfare, let it become a trap.
23 Let their eyes be darkened, that they see not; and make their loins continually to shake.
24 Pour out thine indignation upon them, and let thy wrathful anger take hold of them.
25 Let their habitation be desolate; and let none dwell in their tents.
26 For they persecute him whom thou hast smitten; and they talk to the grief of those whom thou hast wounded.
27 Add iniquity unto their iniquity; and let them not come into thy righteousness.
28 Let them be blotted out of the book of the living, and not be written with the righteous.
