22 Let their [a]table be a snare before them, and their prosperity their ruin.

23 Let their eyes be blinded that they see not: and make their [b]loins always to tremble.

24 Pour out thine anger upon them, and let thy wrathful displeasure take them.

25 Let their [c]habitation be void, and let none dwell in their tents.

26 For they persecute him, whom thou hast smitten: and they add unto the sorrow of them, whom thou hast wounded.

27 Lay [d]iniquity upon their iniquity, and let them not come into thy righteousness.

28 Let them be put out of the [e]book of life, neither let them be written with the righteous.

29 When I am poor and in heaviness, thine help, O God, shall exalt me.
