Psalms 69:23-31

²³I hope/desire that their eyesight will become dim so that they cannot see anything, and that their backs/bodies will become weaker and weaker.

²⁴Show them that you are very angry with them! Because of your great/furious anger, chase after them and catch them.

²⁵Cause their towns to become abandoned/deserted and that there will be no one left to live in their tents/houses.

²⁶Do this because they persecute those whom you have punished, ◄they talk about the sins of/they want to hurt even more► those whom you have wounded.

²⁷Keep making a record of all their sins, do not acquit/pardon them for the evil things that they have done.

²⁸Erase their names SYN from the book containing the names of those who have eternal life; do not include them in the list of righteous people.

²⁹As for me, I have pain and am suffering. O God, protect me and rescue me.

³⁰When God does that, I will sing as I praise God, and I will honor him by thanking him.

³¹My doing that will please Yahweh more than sacrificing oxen, more than offering him full-grown bulls.
