18Come here and rescue me; set me free from my enemies.
19You—you know my shame, my disgrace, my humiliation. You see everything my enemies are doing.
20Insults have broken my heart—I am so sick there is no cure. I looked for some sympathy, but there was no one! Nobody showed me any compassion.
21Instead they gave me bitter herbs to eat and vinegar to drink.
22May the table set before them become a trap for them, a net that catches them, bringing punishment.
23May their eyes become blind so they cannot see, and may their backs always be bent low in dejection.
24Pour out your judgment on them; chase them down in your fierce anger.
25Let the places where they live be deserted. Let their homes be abandoned.
