69:1 |
To the Overseer. -- `On the Lilies,' by David. Save me, O God, for come have waters unto the soul.
|
69:2 |
I have sunk in deep mire, And there is no standing, I have come into the depths of the waters, And a flood hath overflown me.
|
69:3 |
I have been wearied with my calling, Burnt hath been my throat, Consumed have been mine eyes, waiting for my God.
|
69:4 |
Those hating me without cause Have been more than the hairs of my head, Mighty have been my destroyers, My lying enemies, That which I took not away -- I bring back.
|
69:5 |
O God, Thou -- Thou hast known Concerning my overturn, And my desolations from Thee have not been hid.
|
69:6 |
Let not those waiting on Thee be ashamed because of me, O Lord, Jehovah of Hosts, Let not those seeking Thee Blush because of me, O God of Israel.
|
69:7 |
For because of Thee I have borne reproach, Shame hath covered my face.
|
69:8 |
A stranger I have been to my brother, And a foreigner to sons of my mother.
|
69:9 |
For zeal for Thy house hath consumed me, And the reproaches of Thy reproachers Have fallen upon me.
|
69:10 |
And I weep in the fasting of my soul, And it is for a reproach to me.
|
69:11 |
And I make my clothing sackcloth, And I am to them for a simile.
|
69:12 |
Those sitting at the gate meditate concerning me, And those drinking strong drink, Play on instruments.
|
69:13 |
And I -- my prayer [is] to Thee, O Jehovah, A time of good pleasure, O God, In the abundance of Thy kindness, Answer me in the truth of Thy salvation.
|
69:14 |
Deliver me from the mire, and let me not sink, Let me be delivered from those hating me, And from deep places of waters.
|
69:15 |
Let not a flood of waters overflow me, Nor let the deep swallow me up, Nor let the pit shut her mouth upon me.
|
69:16 |
Answer me, O Jehovah, for good [is] Thy kindness, According to the abundance Of Thy mercies turn Thou unto me,
|
69:17 |
And hide not Thy face from Thy servant, For I am in distress -- haste, answer me.
|
69:18 |
Be near unto my soul -- redeem it, Because of mine enemies ransom me.
|
69:19 |
Thou -- Thou hast known my reproach, And my shame, and my blushing, Before Thee [are] all mine adversaries.
|
69:20 |
Reproach hath broken my heart, and I am sick, And I look for a bemoaner, and there is none, And for comforters, and I have found none.
|
69:21 |
And they give for my food gall, And for my thirst cause me to drink vinegar.
|
69:22 |
Their table before them is for a snare, And for a recompence -- for a trap.
|
69:23 |
Darkened are their eyes from seeing, And their loins continually shake Thou.
|
69:24 |
Pour upon them Thine indignation, And the fierceness of Thine anger doth seize them.
|
69:25 |
Their tower is desolated, In their tents there is no dweller.
|
69:26 |
For they have pursued him Thou hast smitten, And recount of the pain of Thy pierced ones.
|
69:27 |
Give punishment for their iniquity, And they enter not into Thy righteousness.
|
69:28 |
They are blotted out of the book of life, And with the righteous are not written.
|
69:29 |
And I [am] afflicted and pained, Thy salvation, O God, doth set me on high.
|
69:30 |
I praise the name of God with a song, And I magnify Him with thanksgiving,
|
69:31 |
And it is better to Jehovah than an ox, A bullock -- horned -- hoofed.
|
69:32 |
The humble have seen -- they rejoice, Ye who seek God -- and your heart liveth.
|
69:33 |
For Jehovah hearkeneth unto the needy, And His bound ones He hath not despised.
|
69:34 |
The heavens and earth do praise Him, Seas, and every moving thing in them.
|
69:35 |
For God doth save Zion, And doth build the cities of Judah, And they have dwelt there, and possess it.
|
69:36 |
And the seed of His servants inherit it, And those loving His name dwell in it!
