And pin my thirst they gave me qvinegar to drink.

And that which should have been for their welfare, let it become a trap.

and gave me vinegar for my thirst.

may it become retribution and a trap.

and for my thirst they gave me sour wine to drink.
22 Let their own table before them become a snare;
and when they are at peace, let it become a trap.

they offer me sour wine for my thirst.
22 Let the bountiful table set before them become a snare
and their prosperity become a trap.
