Save me, O God; for the waters are come in to [my] soul. 2I sink in deep mire, where [there is] no standing: I am come into deep waters, where the floods overflow me. 3I am weary of my crying: my throat is dried: my eyes fail while I wait for my God. 4They that hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of my head: they that would destroy me, [being] my enemies wrongfully, are mighty: then I restored [that] which I took not away. 5O God, thou knowest my foolishness; and my sins are not hid from thee. 6Let not them that wait on thee, O Lord GOD of hosts, be ashamed for my sake: let not those that seek thee be confounded for my sake, O God of Israel. 7Because for thy sake I have borne reproach; shame hath covered my face. 8I am become a stranger to my brethren, and an alien to my mother's children. 9For the zeal of thy house hath eaten me up; and the reproaches of them that reproached thee have fallen upon me. 10When I wept, [and chastened] my soul with fasting, that was to my reproach. 11I made sackcloth also my garment; and I became a proverb to them. 12They that sit in the gate speak against me; and I [was] the song of the drunkards. 13But as for me, my prayer [is] to thee, O LORD, [in] an acceptable time: O God, in the multitude of thy mercy hear me, in the truth of thy salvation. 14Deliver 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. 15Let not the water-flood overflow me, neither let the deep swallow me up, and let not the pit shut her mouth upon me. 16Hear me, O LORD; for thy loving-kindness [is] good: turn to me according to the multitude of thy tender mercies. 17And hide not thy face from thy servant; for I am in trouble: hear me speedily. 18Draw nigh to my soul, [and] redeem it: deliver me because of my enemies. 19Thou hast known my reproach, and my shame, and my dishonor: my adversaries [are] all before thee. 20Reproach hath broken my heart; and I am full of heaviness: and I looked [for some] to take pity, but [there was] none; and for comforters, but I found none. 21They gave me also gall for my food; and in my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink. 22Let their table become a snare before them: and [that which should have been] for [their] welfare, [let it become] a trap. 23Let their eyes be darkened, that they see not; and make their loins continually to shake. 24Pour out thy indignation upon them, and let thy wrathful anger take hold of them. 25Let their habitation be desolate; [and] let none dwell in their tents. 26For they persecute [him] whom thou hast smitten; and they talk to the grief of those whom thou hast wounded. 27Add iniquity to their iniquity: and let them not come into thy righteousness. 28Let them be blotted out of the book of the living, and not be written with the righteous. 29But I [am] poor and sorrowful: let thy salvation, O God, set me up on high. 30I will praise the name of God with a song, and will magnify him with thanksgiving. 31[This] also shall please the LORD better than an ox [or] bullock that hath horns and hoofs. 32The humble shall see [this], [and] be glad: and your heart shall live that seek God. 33For the LORD heareth the poor, and despiseth not his prisoners. 34Let the heaven and earth praise him, the seas, and every thing that moveth therein. 35For God will save Zion, and will build the cities of Judah: that they may dwell there, and have it in possession. 36The seed also of his servants shall inherit it: and they that love his name shall dwell therein. ‹Previous chapterPsalms 68Next chapterPsalms 70›Similar passagesBy tradition and source labelFind similarCompare selectedCompare with similarAsk Deep ThoughtSelect passages to search for parallels.VersionsPsalms 69 across 9 versionsShow all 9WEB - World English BibleKJV - King James VersionASV - American Standard VersionDarby - Darby BibleYLT - Young's Literal TranslationWebster - Webster BibleGeneva - Geneva BibleDouay - Douay-Rheims ChallonerRV1909 - Reina-Valera 1909Tap any verse to select it, then compare selected passages or ask Deep Thought.
