19You know how they kick me around—

Pin on me the donkey’s ears, the dunce’s cap.

20I’m broken by their taunts,

Flat on my face, reduced to a nothing.

I looked in vain for one friendly face. Not one.

I couldn’t find one shoulder to cry on.

21They put poison in my soup,

Vinegar in my drink.

ESVEnglish Standard Version

You know my reproach,

and my shame and my dishonor;

my foes are all known to you.

Reproaches have broken my heart,

so that I am in despair.

I looked for pity, but there was none,

and for comforters, but I found none.

They gave me poison for food,

and for my thirst they gave me sour wine to drink.

NIVNew International Version (2011)

You know how I am scorned, disgraced and shamed;

all my enemies are before you.

Scorn has broken my heart

and has left me helpless;

I looked for sympathy, but there was none,

for comforters, but I found none.

They put gall in my food

and gave me vinegar for my thirst.

CSBChristian Standard Bible

You know the insults I endure—

my shame and disgrace.

You are aware of all my adversaries.

Insults have broken my heart,

and I am in despair.

I waited for sympathy,

but there was none;

for comforters, but found no one.

Instead, they gave me gall for my food,

and for my thirst

they gave me vinegar to drink.

NLTNew Living Translation

You know of my shame, scorn, and disgrace.

You see all that my enemies are doing.

Their insults have broken my heart,

and I am in despair.

If only one person would show some pity;

if only one would turn and comfort me.

But instead, they give me poison for food;

they offer me sour wine for my thirst.

LEBThe Lexham English Bible

You know my reproach, my shame and my disgrace.

Fully known to you are all my adversaries.

Reproach has broken my heart and I am sick.

And I hoped for sympathy, but there was none,

and for comforters, but I found none.

They also gave me gall for food,

and for my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink.

KJV 1900King James Version

Thou hast known my reproach, and my shame, and my dishonour:

Mine adversaries are all before thee.

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.

They gave me also gall for my meat;

And in my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink.
