BRN Zain. I remembered by reason of my poverty, and because of persecution my bitterness and gall shall be remembered;
BrLXX ΖΑΙΝ. Ἐμνήσθην ἀπὸ πτωχείας μου, καὶ ἐκ διωγμοῦ πικρία καὶ χολή μου μνησθήσεται,
(ZAIN. Emnaʸsthaʸn apo ptōⱪeias mou, kai ek diōgmou pikria kai ⱪolaʸ mou mnaʸsthaʸsetai,)
3:19 is bitter beyond words (or is wormwood and gall): Wormwood is a plant with a bitter taste; here it represents the emotional intensity of inner agony (Prov 5:4; Rev 8:11). Gall is a poisonous plant that causes severe physical pain if eaten; it is a powerful symbol for extremely stressful emotions (Deut 29:18; Ps 69:21). The author seems to be at a dead end from which he cannot escape.
In verses 19 to 42, the writer thinks about the lessons that he and his fellow citizens should learn about God and his anger and mercy.
