69:1 |
To the choirmaster: according to Lilies. A Psalm of David. Save me, O God! For the waters have come up to my neck.
|
69:2 |
I sink in deep mire, where there is no foothold;I have come into deep waters, and the flood sweeps over me.
|
69:3 |
I am weary with my crying;my throat is parched. My eyes grow dim with waiting for my God.
|
69:4 |
More in number than the hairs of my head are those who hate me without cause;mighty are those who would destroy me, those who attack me with lies. What I did not steal must I now restore?
|
69:5 |
O God, thou knowest my folly;the wrongs I have done are not hidden from thee.
|
69:6 |
Let not those who hope in thee be put to shame through me, O Lord GOD of hosts;let not those who seek thee be brought to dishonor through me, O God of Israel.
|
69:7 |
For it is for thy sake that I have borne reproach, that shame has covered my face.
|
69:8 |
I have become a stranger to my brethren, an alien to my mother's sons.
|
69:9 |
For zeal for thy house has consumed me, and the insults of those who insult thee have fallen on me.
|
69:10 |
When I humbled my soul with fasting, it became my reproach.
|
69:11 |
When I made sackcloth my clothing, I became a byword to them.
|
69:12 |
I am the talk of those who sit in the gate, and the drunkards make songs about me.
|
69:13 |
But as for me, my prayer is to thee, O LORD. At an acceptable time, O God, in the abundance of thy steadfast love answer me. With thy faithful help
|
69:14 |
rescue me from sinking in the mire;let me be delivered from my enemies and from the deep waters.
|
69:15 |
Let not the flood sweep over me, or the deep swallow me up, or the pit close its mouth over me.
|
69:16 |
Answer me, O LORD, for thy steadfast love is good;according to thy abundant mercy, turn to me.
|
69:17 |
Hide not thy face from thy servant;for I am in distress, make haste to answer me.
|
69:18 |
Draw near to me, redeem me, set me free because of my enemies!
|
69:19 |
Thou knowest my reproach, and my shame and my dishonor;my foes are all known to thee.
|
69:20 |
Insults have broken my heart, so that I am in despair. I looked for pity, but there was none;and for comforters, but I found none.
|
69:21 |
They gave me poison for food, and for my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink.
|
69:22 |
Let their own table before them become a snare;let their sacrificial feasts be a trap.
|
69:23 |
Let their eyes be darkened, so that they cannot see;and make their loins tremble continually.
|
69:24 |
Pour out thy indignation upon them, and let thy burning anger overtake them.
|
69:25 |
May their camp be a desolation, let no one dwell in their tents.
|
69:26 |
For they persecute him whom thou hast smitten, and him whom thou hast wounded, they afflict still more.
|
69:27 |
Add to them punishment upon punishment;may they have no acquittal from thee.
|
69:28 |
Let them be blotted out of the book of the living;let them not be enrolled among the righteous.
|
69:29 |
But I am afflicted and in pain;let thy salvation, O God, set me on high!
|
69:30 |
I will praise the name of God with a song;I will magnify him with thanksgiving.
|
69:31 |
This will please the LORD more than an ox or a bull with horns and hoofs.
|
69:32 |
Let the oppressed see it and be glad;you who seek God, let your hearts revive.
|
69:33 |
For the LORD hears the needy, and does not despise his own that are in bonds.
|
69:34 |
Let heaven and earth praise him, the seas and everything that moves therein.
|
69:35 |
For God will save Zion and rebuild the cities of Judah;and his servants shall dwell there and possess it;
|
69:36 |
the children of his servants shall inherit it, and those who love his name shall dwell in it.
