- Save me, O God, For the waters have threatened my life.
- I have sunk in deep mire, and there is no foothold; I have come into deep waters, and a flood overflows me.
- I am weary with my crying; my throat is parched; My eyes fail while I wait for my God.
- Those who hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of my head; Those who would destroy me are powerful, being wrongfully my enemies; What I did not steal, I then have to restore.
- O God, it is You who knows my folly, And my wrongs are not hidden from You.
|
- Save me, O God, for the waters have come up to my neck.
- I sink in the miry depths, where there is no foothold. I have come into the deep waters; the floods engulf me.
- I am worn out calling for help; my throat is parched. My eyes fail, looking for my God.
- 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.
- You know my folly, O God; my guilt is not hidden from you.
|
- May those who wait for You not be ashamed through me, O Lord GOD of hosts; May those who seek You not be dishonored through me, O God of Israel,
- Because for Your sake I have borne reproach; Dishonor has covered my face.
- I have become estranged from my brothers And an alien to my mother's sons.
- For zeal for Your house has consumed me, And the reproaches of those who reproach You have fallen on me.
- When I wept in my soul with fasting, It became my reproach.
|
- May those who hope in you not be disgraced because of me, O Lord, the LORD Almighty; may those who seek you not be put to shame because of me, O God of Israel.
- For I endure scorn for your sake, and shame covers my face.
- I am a stranger to my brothers, an alien to my own mother's sons;
- for zeal for your house consumes me, and the insults of those who insult you fall on me.
- When I weep and fast, I must endure scorn;
|
- When I made sackcloth my clothing, I became a byword to them.
- Those who sit in the gate talk about me, And I am the song of the drunkards.
- But as for me, my prayer is to You, O LORD, at an acceptable time; O God, in the greatness of Your lovingkindness, Answer me with Your saving truth.
- Deliver me from the mire and do not let me sink; May I be delivered from my foes and from the deep waters.
- May the flood of water not overflow me Nor the deep swallow me up, Nor the pit shut its mouth on me.
|
- when I put on sackcloth, people make sport of me.
- Those who sit at the gate mock me, and I am the song of the drunkards.
- But I pray to you, O LORD, in the time of your favor; in your great love, O God, answer me with your sure salvation.
- Rescue me from the mire, do not let me sink; deliver me from those who hate me, from the deep waters.
- Do not let the floodwaters engulf me or the depths swallow me up or the pit close its mouth over me.
