Psalm 69

1 To the chief5329 Musician5329 upon Shoshannim,7799 A Psalm of David.1732 Save3467 me, O God;430 for the waters4325 are come935 in to my soul.5315

2 I sink2883 in deep4688 mire,3121 where there is no369 standing:4613 I am come935 into deep4615 waters,4325 where the floods7641 overflow7857 me.

3 I am weary3021 of my crying:7121 my throat1627 is dried:2787 my eyes5869 fail3615 while I wait3176 for my God.430

4 They that hate8130 me without2600 a cause2600 are more7231 than the hairs8185 of my head:7218 they that would destroy6789 me, being my enemies341 wrongfully,8267 are mighty:6105 then227 I restored7725 that which834 I took1497 not away.1497

5 O God,430 you know3045 my foolishness;200 and my sins819 are not hid3582 from you.

6 Let not them that wait6960 on you, O Lord136 GOD3069 of hosts,6635 be ashamed954 for my sake: let not those that seek1245 you be confounded3637 for my sake, O God430 of Israel.3478

7 Because3588 for your sake5921 I have borne5375 reproach;2781 shame3639 has covered3680 my face.6440

8 I am become1961 a stranger2114 to my brothers,251 and an alien5237 to my mother's517 children.1121

9 For the zeal7068 of your house1004 has eaten398 me up; and the reproaches2781 of them that reproached2778 you are fallen5307 on me.

10 When I wept,1058 and chastened my soul5315 with fasting,6685 that was to my reproach.2781

11 I made5414 sackcloth8242 also my garment;3830 and I became1961 a proverb4912 to them.

12 They that sit3427 in the gate8179 speak7878 against me; and I was the song5058 of the drunkards.8354 7941

13 But as for me, my prayer8605 is to you, O LORD,3068 in an acceptable7522 time:6256 O God,430 in the multitude7230 of your mercy2617 hear6030 me, in the truth571 of your salvation.3468

14 Deliver5337 me out of the mire,2916 and let me not sink:2883 let me be delivered5337 from them that hate8130 me, and out of the deep4615 waters.4325

15 Let not the flood7641 4325 overflow7857 me, neither408 let the deep4688 swallow1104 me up, and let not the pit875 shut332 her mouth6310 on me.

16 Hear6030 me, O LORD;3068 for your loving kindness2617 is good:2896 turn6437 to me according to the multitude7230 of your tender mercies.7356

17 And hide5641 not your face6440 from your servant;5650 for I am in trouble:6887 hear6030 me speedily.4118

18 Draw near7126 to my soul,5315 and redeem1350 it: deliver6299 me because4616 of my enemies.341

19 You have known3045 my reproach,2781 and my shame,1322 and my dishonor:3639 my adversaries6887 are all3605 before5048 you.

20 Reproach2781 has broken7665 my heart;3820 and I am full of heaviness:5136 and I looked6960 for some to take pity,5110 but there was none;369 and for comforters,5162 but I found4672 none.3808

21 They gave5414 me also gall7219 for my meat;1267 and in my thirst6772 they gave me vinegar2558 to drink.8248

22 Let their table7979 become1961 a snare6341 before6440 them: and that which should have been for their welfare,7965 let it become a trap.4170

23 Let their eyes5869 be darkened,2821 that they see7200 not; and make their loins4975 continually8548 to shake.4571

24 Pour8210 out your indignation2195 on them, and let your wrathful2740 anger639 take5381 hold5381 of them.

25 Let their habitation2918 be desolate;8074 and let none408 dwell3427 in their tents.168

26 For they persecute7291 him whom834 you have smitten;5221 and they talk5608 to the grief4341 of those whom you have wounded.2491

27 Add5414 iniquity5771 to their iniquity:5771 and let them not come935 into your righteousness.6666

28 Let them be blotted4229 out of the book5612 of the living,2416 and not be written3789 with the righteous.6662

29 But I am poor6041 and sorrowful:3510 let your salvation,3444 O God,430 set me up on high.7682

30 I will praise1984 the name8034 of God430 with a song,7892 and will magnify1431 him with thanksgiving.8426

31 This also shall please3190 the LORD3068 better3190 than an ox7794 or bullock6499 that has horns7160 and hoofs.6536

32 The humble6041 shall see7200 this, and be glad:8056 and your heart3824 shall live2421 that seek1875 God.430

33 For the LORD3068 hears8085 the poor,34 and despises959 not his prisoners.615

34 Let the heaven8064 and earth776 praise1984 him, the seas,3220 and every3605 thing that moves7430 therein.

35 For God430 will save3467 Zion,6726 and will build1129 the cities5892 of Judah:3063 that they may dwell3427 there, and have it in possession.3423

36 The seed2233 also of his servants5650 shall inherit5157 it: and they that love157 his name8034 shall dwell7931 therein.

Psalms

Psalm 69

1 SAVE me, O God; for the waters are come near to engulf me.

2 I sink in deep mire where there is no footing; I am come into deep waters, where the floods overflow me.

3 I am weary of my crying; my throat is dry; mine eyes fail while I wait for God.

4 They that hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of my head; they that would destroy me, being mine enemies wrongfully, are mighty; then I restored that which I took lawfully.

5 O God, thou knowest my foolishness; and my sins are not hid from thee.

6 Let not them that trust in thee be ashamed through me, O LORD God of hosts; let not those that seek thee be dishonored through me, O God of Israel.

7 Because for thy sake I have borne reproach; shame has covered my face.

8 I am become a stranger to my brethren and an alien to my mother's children.

9 For the zeal of thy house has made me courageous; and the reproaches of them that reproached thee are fallen upon me.

10 When I humbled and chastened my soul with fasting, that was to my reproach.

11 I made sackcloth also my garment and I became a proverb to them.

12 They that sit in the gate speak against me; and I was the song of the drunkards.

13 But as for me, my prayer is unto thee, O LORD, in an acceptable time; O God, in the multitude of thy mercy answer me, in the abundance of thy salvation,

14 Deliver me out of the mire, and let me not sink; let me be delivered from them that hate me, and out of the deep waters.

15 Let not the waterflood overflow me, neither let the deep swallow me up, and let not the well shut its mouth upon me.

16 Answer me, O LORD; for thy lovingkindness is good; turn to me according to the multitude of thy tender mercies.

17 And hide not thy face from thy servant; for I am in trouble; answer me speedily.

18 Draw near to my soul, and redeem it; deliver me because of mine enemies.

19 Thou knowest my reproach and my shame, and my dishonour is spread before all mine adversaries.

20 O thou, heal my broken heart and bind it; I looked for some to take pity, but there was none; and for comforters, but I found none.

21 They gave me bitter herbs for my food; and in my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink.

22 Let their table become a snare before them; and that which should have been for their reward, let it become a trap.

23 Let their eyes be darkened, that they see not; and make their backs continually to bend.

24 Pour out thine indignation upon them, and let thy wrathful anger take hold of them.

25 Let their habitation be desolate; and let none dwell in their tents.

26 The one which thou hast smitten, they have persecuted; they have added to the grief of him who is wounded.

27 Add punishment of iniquity to their iniquity, that they may enter not into thy righteousness.

28 Let them be blotted out of thy book of the living, and not be written with the righteous.

29 But I am poor and sorrowful; let thy salvation help me, O God.

30 I will praise the name of God with a song, and will magnify him with thanksgiving.

31 This shall please the LORD better than an ox or bullock that has horns and hoofs.

32 The humble shall see this and be glad; and your heart shall live that seek God.

33 For the LORD hears the poor, and despises not his prisoners.

34 Let heaven and earth praise him, the seas, and every thing that moves therein.

35 For God will save Zion, and will build the cities of Judah;

36 His servants shall dwell in it and shall inherit it; they that love his name shall dwell therein.
