Psalm
69
1
Deliver me, O God, for the water has reached my neck.
2
I sink into the deep mire where there is no solid ground; I am in deep water, and the current overpowers me.
3
I am exhausted from shouting for help; my throat is sore; my eyes grow tired of looking for my God.
4
Those who hate me without cause are more numerous than the hairs of my head. Those who want to destroy me, my enemies for no reason, outnumber me. They make me repay what I did not steal!
5
O God, you are aware of my foolish sins; my guilt is not hidden from you.
6
Let none who rely on you be disgraced because of me, O sovereign LORD and king! Let none who seek you be ashamed because of me, O God of Israel!
7
For I suffer humiliation for your sake and am thoroughly disgraced.
8
My own brothers treat me like a stranger; they act as if I were a foreigner.
9
Certainly zeal for your house consumes me; I endure the insults of those who insult you.
10
I weep and refrain from eating food, which causes others to insult me.
11
I wear sackcloth and they ridicule me.
12
Those who sit at the city gate gossip about me; drunkards mock me in their songs.
13
O LORD, may you hear my prayer and be favorably disposed to me! O God, because of your great loyal love, answer me with your faithful deliverance!
14
Rescue me from the mud! Don't let me sink! Deliver me from those who hate me, from the deep water!
15
Don't let the current overpower me! Don't let the deep swallow me up! Don't let the pit devour me!
16
Answer me, O LORD, for your loyal love is good! Because of your great compassion, turn toward me!
17
Do not ignore your servant, for I am in trouble! Answer me right away!
18
Come near me and redeem me! Because of my enemies, rescue me!
