Psalm 69

1 To the chief Musician5329 upon5921 Shoshannim,7799 A Psalm of David.1732 Save3467 me, O God;430 for3588 the waters4325 are come in935 unto5704 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 mine eyes5869 fail3615 while I wait3176 for my God.430

4 They that hate8130 me without a cause2600 are more7231 than the hairs4480 8185 of mine head:7218 they that would destroy6789 me, being mine enemies341 wrongfully,8267 are mighty:6105 then227 I restored7725 that which834 I took not away.3808 1497

5 O God,430 thou859 knowest3045 my foolishness;200 and my sins819 are not3808 hid3582 from4480 thee.

6 Let not408 them that wait on6960 thee, O Lord136 GOD3069 of hosts,6635 be ashamed954 for my sake: let not408 those that seek1245 thee be confounded3637 for my sake, O God430 of Israel.3478

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

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

9 For3588 the zeal7068 of thine house1004 hath eaten me up;398 and the reproaches2781 of them that reproached2778 thee are fallen5307 upon5921 me.

10 When I wept,1058 and chastened my soul5315 with fasting,6685 that was1961 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,589 my prayer8605 is unto thee, O LORD,3068 in an acceptable7522 time:6256 O God,430 in the multitude7230 of thy mercy2617 hear6030 me, in the truth571 of thy salvation.3468

14 Deliver5337 me out of the mire,4480 2916 and let me not408 sink:2883 let me be delivered5337 from them that hate4480 8130 me, and out of the deep4480 4615 waters.4325

15 Let not408 the waterflood7641 4325 overflow7857 me, neither408 let the deep4688 swallow me up,1104 and let not408 the pit875 shut332 her mouth6310 upon5921 me.

16 Hear6030 me, O LORD;3068 for3588 thy lovingkindness2617 is good:2896 turn6437 unto413 me according to the multitude7230 of thy tender mercies.7356

17 And hide5641 not408 thy face6440 from thy servant;4480 5650 for3588 I am in trouble:6862 hear6030 me speedily.4116

18 Draw nigh7126 unto413 my soul,5315 and redeem1350 it: deliver6299 me because of4616 mine enemies.341

19 Thou859 hast known3045 my reproach,2781 and my shame,1322 and my dishonor:3639 mine adversaries6887 are all3605 before5048 thee.

20 Reproach2781 hath 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 see not;4480 7200 and make their loins4975 continually8548 to shake.4571

24 Pour out8210 thine indignation2195 upon5921 them, and let thy wrathful2740 anger639 take hold5381 of them.

25 Let their habitation2918 be1961 desolate;8074 and let1961 none408 dwell3427 in their tents.168

26 For3588 they persecute7291 him whom834 thou859 hast smitten;5221 and they talk5608 to413 the grief4341 of those whom thou hast wounded.2491

27 Add5414 iniquity5771 unto5921 their iniquity:5771 and let them not408 come935 into thy righteousness.6666

28 Let them be blotted4229 out of the book4480 5612 of the living,2416 and not408 be written3789 with5973 the righteous.6662

29 But I589 am poor6041 and sorrowful:3510 let thy 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 better than an ox4480 7794 or bullock6499 that hath horns7160 and hooves.6536

32 The humble6035 shall see7200 this, and be glad:8055 and your heart3824 shall live2421 that seek1875 God.430

33 For3588 the LORD3068 heareth8085 413 the poor,34 and despiseth959 not3808 his prisoners.615

34 Let the heaven8064 and earth776 praise1984 him, the seas,3220 and every thing3605 that moveth7430 therein.

35 For3588 God430 will save3467 Zion,6726 and will build1129 the cities5892 of Judah:3063 that they may dwell3427 there,8033 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.
