69:21 They put bitter poison 1 into my food,
and to quench my thirst they give me vinegar to drink. 2
104:11 They provide water for all the animals in the field;
the wild donkeys quench their thirst.
1 tn According to BDB 912 s.v. II רֹאשׁ the term can mean “a bitter and poisonous plant.”
2 sn John 19:28-30 appears to understand Jesus’ experience on the cross as a fulfillment of this passage (or Ps 22:15). See the study note on the word “thirsty” in John 19:28.
