They gave me also gall for my meat; and in my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink.

Verse 21 is found in chapter 69 of Psalms. Psalm 69 combines an extreme plea arising from persecution with a confession of zeal for God’s house. Deep waters and mud represent a situation in which the psalmist feels he is sinking without being able to escape. Suffering intensifies because enemies attack him unjustly. After asking for justice and deliverance, the prayer ends in praise and hope for Zion and for those who seek God.

Die Schmach bricht mir mein Herz und kränkt mich. Ich warte, ob es jemand jammere, aber da ist niemand, und auf Tröster, aber ich finde keine.
Pusiéronme además hiel por comida, Y en mi sed me dieron a beber vinagre.
Pusieron veneno en mi comida y, cuando tuve sed, me dieron a beber vinagre.
Ils mettent du fiel dans ma nourriture, Et, pour apaiser ma soif, ils m'abreuvent de vinaigre.
Hanno, oltre a ciò, messo del veleno nella mia vivanda; E, nella mia sete, mi hanno dato a bere dell’aceto
Deram-me fel por mantimento, e na minha sede me deram a beber vinagre.
他們拿苦膽給我當食物; 我渴了,他們拿醋給我喝。
