πιεῖν οἶνον μετὰ χολῆς μεμιγμένον
/to/_drink wine with gall /having_been/_mixed
If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. If you need to say who did the action, it is clear from the context that it was the soldiers. Alternate translation: “wine, which they had mixed with gall, to drink”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / extrainfo
χολῆς
gall
Here, gall refers to a liquid with a bitter taste. This liquid may have been a pain-relieving medicine, or it may simply have made the wine taste bitter. If possible, use a form that does indicate what the gall would have been used for. Alternate translation: “something bitter” or “a bitter substance”
27:34 Giving Jesus wine mixed with bitter gall was probably intended for ridicule (see Ps 69:21). It was also a sedative—Jesus probably rejected it in order to suffer fully for our sins (see Isa 53:10).
• Gall, otherwise known as wormwood, is a bitter narcotic made from the oil of Artemisia (cp. Mark 15:23).
