20 Reproach has broken my heart, and I am full of heaviness.
    I looked for some to take pity, but there was none;
    for comforters, but I found none.

22 Let their table before them become a snare.
    May it become a retribution and a trap.

22 May the table set before them become a snare;
    may it become retribution and[a] a trap.(E)
