Psalms 69:1-24
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 69
1
Save me, God,
For the waters have threatened my life.
2
I have sunk in deep mud, and there is no foothold;
I have come into deep waters, and a flood overflows me.
3
I am weary with my crying; my throat is parched;
My eyes fail while I wait for my God.
4
Those who hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of my head;
Those who would destroy me are powerful, those who oppose me with lies;
What I did not steal, I then have to restore.
5
God, You know my foolishness,
And my guilt is not hidden from You.
6
May those who wait for You not be ashamed because of me, Lord
God
of armies;
May those who seek You not be dishonored because of me, God of Israel,
7
Because for Your sake I have endured disgrace;
Dishonor has covered my face.
8
I have become estranged from my brothers,
And a stranger to my mother’s sons.
9
For zeal for Your house has consumed me,
And the taunts of those who taunt You have fallen on me.
10
When I wept in my soul with fasting,
It became my disgrace.
11
When I made sackcloth my clothing,
I became a proverb to them.
12
Those who sit in the gate talk about me,
And songs of mockery by those habitually drunk
are about me.
13
But as for me, my prayer is to You,
Lord
, at an acceptable time;
God, in the greatness of Your mercy,
Answer me with Your saving truth.
14
Rescue me from the mud and do not let me sink;
May I be rescued from those who hate me, and from the depths of water.
15
May the flood of water not overflow me
Nor the deep swallow me up,
Nor the pit close its mouth on me.
16
Answer me,
Lord
, for Your mercy is good;
According to the greatness of Your compassion, turn to me,
17
And do not hide Your face from Your servant,
For I am in distress; answer me quickly.
18
Come near to my soul
and
redeem it;
Ransom me because of my enemies!
19
You know my disgrace, my shame, and my dishonor;
All my enemies are known to You.
20
Disgrace has broken my heart, and I am so sick.
And I waited for sympathy, but there was none;
And for comforters, but I found none.
21
They also gave me a bitter herb in my food,
And for my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink.
22
May their table before them become a snare;
And when they are at peace,
may it become
a trap.
23
May their eyes grow dim so that they cannot see,
And make their hips shake continually.
24
Pour out Your indignation on them,
And may Your burning anger overtake them.
King James Version
Chapter 69
1
To the chief Musician upon Shoshannim, A Psalm of David. Save me, O God; for the waters are come in unto my soul.
2
I sink in deep mire, where there is no standing: I am come into deep waters, where the floods overflow me.
3
I am weary of my crying: my throat is dried: mine eyes fail while I wait for my God.
4
They that hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of mine head: they that would destroy me, being mine enemies wrongfully, are mighty: then I restored that which I took not away.
5
O God, thou knowest my foolishness; and my sins are not hid from thee.
6
Let 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.
7
Because for thy sake I have borne reproach; shame hath covered my face.
8
I am become a stranger unto my brethren, and an alien unto my mother's children.
9
For the zeal of thine house hath eaten me up; and the reproaches of them that reproached thee are fallen upon me.
10
When I wept, 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 hear me, in the truth 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 pit shut her mouth upon me.
16
Hear me, O
Lord
; for thy lovingkindness is good: turn unto me according to the multitude of thy tender mercies.
17
And hide not thy face from thy servant; for I am in trouble: hear me speedily.
18
Draw nigh unto my soul, and redeem it: deliver me because of mine enemies.
19
Thou hast known my reproach, and my shame, and my dishonour: mine adversaries are all before thee.
20
Reproach 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.
21
They gave me also gall for my meat; 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 welfare, let it become a trap.
23
Let their eyes be darkened, that they see not; and make their loins continually to shake.
24
Pour out thine indignation upon them, and let thy wrathful anger take hold of them.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 69
1
For the choir director: according to "The Lilies." Of David.
Save me, God,
for the water has risen to my neck.
2
I have sunk in deep mud, and there is no footing;
I have come into deep water,
and a flood sweeps over me.
3
I am weary from my crying;
my throat is parched.
My eyes fail, looking for my God.
4
Those who hate me without cause
are more numerous than the hairs of my head;
my deceitful enemies, who would destroy me,
are powerful.
Though I did not steal, I must repay.
5
God, you know my foolishness,
and my guilty acts are not hidden from you.
6
Do not let those who put their hope in you
be disgraced because of me,
Lord
God
of Armies;
do not let those who seek you
be humiliated because of me,
God of Israel.
7
For I have endured insults because of you,
and shame has covered my face.
8
I have become a stranger to my brothers
and a foreigner to my mother’s sons
9
because zeal for your house has consumed me,
and the insults of those who insult you
have fallen on me.
10
I mourned and fasted,
but it brought me insults.
11
I wore sackcloth as my clothing,
and I was a joke to them.
12
Those who sit at the city gate talk about me,
and drunkards make up songs about me.
13
But as for me,
Lord
,
my prayer to you is for a time of favor.
In your abundant, faithful love, God,
answer me with your sure salvation.
14
Rescue me from the miry mud; don’t let me sink.
Let me be rescued from those who hate me
and from the deep water.
15
Don’t let the floodwaters sweep over me
or the deep swallow me up;
don’t let the Pit close its mouth over me.
16
Answer me,
Lord
,
for your faithful love is good.
In keeping with your abundant compassion,
turn to me.
17
Don’t hide your face from your servant,
for I am in distress.
Answer me quickly!
18
Come near to me and redeem me;
ransom me because of my enemies.
19
You know the insults I endure—
my shame and disgrace.
You are aware of all my adversaries.
20
Insults have broken my heart,
and I am in despair.
I waited for sympathy,
but there was none;
for comforters, but found no one.
21
Instead, they gave me gall for my food,
and for my thirst
they gave me vinegar to drink.
22
Let their table set before them be a snare,
and let it be a trap for their allies.
23
Let their eyes grow too dim to see,
and let their hips continually quake.
24
Pour out your rage on them,
and let your burning anger overtake them.
New Living Translation
Chapter 69
1
Save me, O God,
for the floodwaters are up to my neck.
2
Deeper and deeper I sink into the mire;
I can’t find a foothold.
I am in deep water,
and the floods overwhelm me.
3
I am exhausted from crying for help;
my throat is parched.
My eyes are swollen with weeping,
waiting for my God to help me.
4
Those who hate me without cause
outnumber the hairs on my head.
Many enemies try to destroy me with lies,
demanding that I give back what I didn’t steal.
5
O God, you know how foolish I am;
my sins cannot be hidden from you.
6
Don’t let those who trust in you be ashamed because of me,
O Sovereign
Lord
of Heaven’s Armies.
Don’t let me cause them to be humiliated,
O God of Israel.
7
For I endure insults for your sake;
humiliation is written all over my face.
8
Even my own brothers pretend they don’t know me;
they treat me like a stranger.
9
Passion for your house has consumed me,
and the insults of those who insult you have fallen on me.
10
When I weep and fast,
they scoff at me.
11
When I dress in burlap to show sorrow,
they make fun of me.
12
I am the favorite topic of town gossip,
and all the drunks sing about me.
13
But I keep praying to you,
Lord
,
hoping this time you will show me favor.
In your unfailing love, O God,
answer my prayer with your sure salvation.
14
Rescue me from the mud;
don’t let me sink any deeper!
Save me from those who hate me,
and pull me from these deep waters.
15
Don’t let the floods overwhelm me,
or the deep waters swallow me,
or the pit of death devour me.
16
Answer my prayers, O
Lord
,
for your unfailing love is wonderful.
Take care of me,
for your mercy is so plentiful.
17
Don’t hide from your servant;
answer me quickly, for I am in deep trouble!
18
Come and redeem me;
free me from my enemies.
19
You know of my shame, scorn, and disgrace.
You see all that my enemies are doing.
20
Their insults have broken my heart,
and I am in despair.
If only one person would show some pity;
if only one would turn and comfort me.
21
But instead, they give me poison for food;
they offer me sour wine for my thirst.
22
Let the bountiful table set before them become a snare
and their prosperity become a trap.
23
Let their eyes go blind so they cannot see,
and make their bodies shake continually.
24
Pour out your fury on them;
consume them with your burning anger.
English Standard Version
Chapter 69
1
Save me, O God!
For the waters have come up to my neck.
2
I sink in deep mire,
where there is no foothold;
I have come into deep waters,
and the flood sweeps over me.
3
I am weary with my crying out;
my throat is parched.
My eyes grow dim
with waiting for my God.
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?
5
O God, you know my folly;
the wrongs I have done are not hidden from you.
6
Let not those who hope in you be put to shame through me,
O Lord
God
of hosts;
let not those who seek you be brought to dishonor through me,
O God of Israel.
7
For it is for your sake that I have borne reproach,
that dishonor has covered my face.
8
I have become a stranger to my brothers,
an alien to my mother 's sons.
9
For zeal for your house has consumed me,
and the reproaches of those who reproach you have fallen on me.
10
When I wept and humbled my soul with fasting,
it became my reproach.
11
When I made sackcloth my clothing,
I became a byword to them.
12
I am the talk of those who sit in the gate,
and the drunkards make songs about me.
13
But as for me, my prayer is to you, O
Lord
.
At an acceptable time, O God,
in the abundance of your steadfast love answer me in your saving faithfulness.
14
Deliver me
from sinking in the mire;
let me be delivered from my enemies
and from the deep waters.
15
Let not the flood sweep over me,
or the deep swallow me up,
or the pit close its mouth over me.
16
Answer me, O
Lord
, for your steadfast love is good;
according to your abundant mercy, turn to me.
17
Hide not your face from your servant,
for I am in distress; make haste to answer me.
18
Draw near to my soul, redeem me;
ransom me because of my enemies!
19
You know my reproach,
and my shame and my dishonor;
my foes are all known to you.
20
Reproaches 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.
21
They gave me poison for food,
and for my thirst they gave me sour wine to drink.
22
Let their own table before them become a snare;
and when they are at peace, let it become a trap.
23
Let their eyes be darkened, so that they cannot see,
and make their loins tremble continually.
24
Pour out your indignation upon them,
and let your burning anger overtake them.
New International Version
Chapter 69
1
For the director of music. To the tune of "Lilies." Of David.
Save me, O God,
for the waters have come up to my neck.
2
I sink in the miry depths,
where there is no foothold.
I have come into the deep waters;
the floods engulf me.
3
I am worn out calling for help;
my throat is parched.
My eyes fail,
looking for my God.
4
Those who hate me without reason
outnumber the hairs of my head;
many are my enemies without cause,
those who seek to destroy me.
I am forced to restore
what I did not steal.
5
You, God, know my folly;
my guilt is not hidden from you.
6
Lord, the
Lord
Almighty,
may those who hope in you
not be disgraced because of me;
God of Israel,
may those who seek you
not be put to shame because of me.
7
For I endure scorn for your sake,
and shame covers my face.
8
I am a foreigner to my own family,
a stranger to my own mother’s children;
9
for zeal for your house consumes me,
and the insults of those who insult you fall on me.
10
When I weep and fast,
I must endure scorn;
11
when I put on sackcloth,
people make sport of me.
12
Those who sit at the gate mock me,
and I am the song of the drunkards.
13
But I pray to you,
Lord
,
in the time of your favor;
in your great love, O God,
answer me with your sure salvation.
14
Rescue me from the mire,
do not let me sink;
deliver me from those who hate me,
from the deep waters.
15
Do not let the floodwaters engulf me
or the depths swallow me up
or the pit close its mouth over me.
16
Answer me,
Lord
, out of the goodness of your love;
in your great mercy turn to me.
17
Do not hide your face from your servant;
answer me quickly, for I am in trouble.
18
Come near and rescue me;
deliver me because of my foes.
19
You know how I am scorned, disgraced and shamed;
all my enemies are before you.
20
Scorn has broken my heart
and has left me helpless;
I looked for sympathy, but there was none,
for comforters, but I found none.
21
They put gall in my food
and gave me vinegar for my thirst.
22
May the table set before them become a snare;
may it become retribution and a trap.
23
May their eyes be darkened so they cannot see,
and their backs be bent forever.
24
Pour out your wrath on them;
let your fierce anger overtake them.
New King James Version
Chapter 69
1
{To the Chief Musician. Set to “The Lilies.”
A Psalm
of David.}
Save me, O God!
For the waters have come up to
my
neck.
2
I sink in deep mire,
Where
there is
no standing;
I have come into deep waters,
Where the floods overflow me.
3
I am weary with my crying;
My throat is dry;
My eyes fail while I wait for my God.
4
Those who hate me without a cause
Are more than the hairs of my head;
They are mighty who would destroy me,
Being
my enemies wrongfully;
Though I have stolen nothing,
I
still
must restore
it.
5
O God, You know my foolishness;
And my sins are not hidden from You.
6
Let not those who wait for You, O Lord
God
of hosts, be ashamed because of me;
Let not those who seek You be confounded because of me, O God of Israel.
7
Because for Your sake I have borne reproach;
Shame has covered my face.
8
I have become a stranger to my brothers,
And an alien to my mother’s children;
9
Because zeal for Your house has eaten me up,
And the reproaches of those who reproach You have fallen on me.
10
When I wept
and chastened
my soul with fasting,
That became my reproach.
11
I also made sackcloth my garment;
I became a byword to them.
12
Those who sit in the gate speak against me,
And I
am
the song of the drunkards.
13
But as for me, my prayer
is
to You,
O
Lord
,
in
the acceptable time;
O God, in the multitude of Your mercy,
Hear me in the truth of Your salvation.
14
Deliver me out of the mire,
And let me not sink;
Let me be delivered from those who hate me,
And out of the deep waters.
15
Let not the floodwater overflow me,
Nor let the deep swallow me up;
And let not the pit shut its mouth on me.
16
Hear me, O
Lord
, for Your lovingkindness
is
good;
Turn to me according to the multitude of Your tender mercies.
17
And do not hide Your face from Your servant,
For I am in trouble;
Hear me speedily.
18
Draw near to my soul,
and
redeem it;
Deliver me because of my enemies.
19
You know my reproach, my shame, and my dishonor;
My adversaries
are
all before You.
20
Reproach has broken my heart,
And I am full of heaviness;
I looked
for someone
to take pity, but
there was
none;
And for comforters, but I found none.
21
They also gave me gall for my food,
And for my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink.
22
Let their table become a snare before them,
And their well-being a trap.
23
Let their eyes be darkened, so that they do not see;
And make their loins shake continually.
24
Pour out Your indignation upon them,
And let Your wrathful anger take hold of them.
