Doesn't "libate" mean to drink yourself, rather than to give someone a drink?
Hm, it doesn't even show in dic.com. Am I spelling it wrong. I know it from yeshiva (seminary) where it translated a word I don't remember for offering wine to idols (which wine then became damaged ("yahyin nezek"), and was fit only to be destroyed).
