[1]
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, where the floods overflow me.
[3] I am weary with my crying.
My throat is dry.
My eyes fail looking for my God.
[4] Those who hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of my head.
Those who want to cut me off, being my enemies wrongfully, are mighty.
I have to restore what I didn’t take away.
[5] God, you know my foolishness.
My sins aren’t hidden from you.
[6] Don’t let those who wait for you be shamed through me, Lord Yahweh of Armies.
Don’t let those who seek you be brought to dishonor through me, 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,
an alien to my mother’s children.
[9] For the zeal of your house consumes me.
The reproaches of those who reproach you have fallen on me.
[10] When I wept and I fasted,
that was to my reproach.
[11] When I made sackcloth my clothing,
I became a byword to them.
[12] Those who sit in the gate talk about me.
I am the song of the drunkards.
[13] But as for me, my prayer is to you, Yahweh, in an acceptable time.
God, in the abundance of your loving kindness, answer me in the truth of your salvation.
[14] Deliver me out of the mire, and don’t let me sink.
Let me be delivered from those who hate me, and out of the deep waters.
[15] Don’t let the flood waters overwhelm me,
neither let the deep swallow me up.
Don’t let the pit shut its mouth on me.
[16] Answer me, Yahweh, for your loving kindness is good.
According to the multitude of your tender mercies, turn to me.
[17] Don’t hide your face from your servant,
for I am in distress.
Answer me speedily!
[18] Draw near to my soul and redeem it.
Ransom 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 some to take pity, but there was none;
for comforters, but I found none.
[21] They also gave me poison for my food.
In my thirst, they gave me vinegar to drink.
[22] Let their table before them become a snare.
May it become a retribution and a trap.
[23] Let their eyes be darkened, so that they can’t see.
Let their backs be continually bent.
[24] Pour out your indignation on them.
Let the fierceness of your anger overtake them.
[25] Let their habitation be desolate.
Let no one dwell in their tents.
[26] For they persecute him whom you have wounded.
They tell of the sorrow of those whom you have hurt.
[27] Charge them with crime upon crime.
Don’t let them come into your righteousness.
[28] Let them be blotted out of the book of life,
and not be written with the righteous.
[29] But I am in pain and distress.
Let your salvation, God, protect me.
[30] I will praise the name of God with a song,
and will magnify him with thanksgiving.
[31] It will please Yahweh better than an ox,
or a bull that has horns and hoofs.
[32] The humble have seen it, and are glad.
You who seek after God, let your heart live.
[33] For Yahweh hears the needy,
and doesn’t despise his captive people.
[34] Let heaven and earth praise him;
the seas, and everything that moves therein!
[35] For God will save Zion, and build the cities of Judah.
They shall settle there, and own it.
[36] The children also of his servants shall inherit it.
Those who love his name shall dwell therein.
For the Chief Musician. To the tune of “Lilies.” By David.
Save me, 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, where the floods overflow me.
[3] I am weary with my crying.
My throat is dry.
My eyes fail looking for my God.
[4] Those who hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of my head.
Those who want to cut me off, being my enemies wrongfully, are mighty.
I have to restore what I didn’t take away.
[5] God, you know my foolishness.
My sins aren’t hidden from you.
[6] Don’t let those who wait for you be shamed through me, Lord Yahweh of Armies.
Don’t let those who seek you be brought to dishonor through me, God of Israel.

To the chief MusicianH5329(PielPtc) upon Shoshannim,H7799 [A Psalm] of David.H1732
SaveH3467(HiphImpv) me, O God;H430 for the watersH4325 are comeH935(QalPerf) in unto [my] soul.H5315 [2] I sinkH2883(QalPerf) in deepH4688 mire,H3121 where [there is] no standing:H4613 I am comeH935(QalPerf) into deepH4615 waters,H4325 where the floodsH7641 overflowH7857(QalPerf) me. [3] I am wearyH3021(QalPerf) of my crying:H7121(QalInf) my throatH1627 is dried:H2787(NiphPerf) mine eyesH5869 failH3615(QalPerf) while I waitH3176(PielPtc) for my God.H430 [4] They that hateH8130(QalActPtc) me without a causeH2600 are moreH7231(QalPerf) than the hairsH8185 of mine head:H7218 they that would destroyH6789(HiphPtc) me, [being] mine enemiesH341(QalActPtc) wrongfully,H8267 are mighty:H6105(QalPerf) then I restoredH7725(HiphImpf) [that] which I took not away.H1497(QalPerf) [5] O God,H430 thou knowestH3045(QalPerf) my foolishness;H200 and my sinsH819 are not hidH3582(NiphPerf) from thee. [6] Let not them that waitH6960(QalActPtc) on thee, O LordH136 GodH3069 of hosts,H6635 be ashamedH954(QalImpf) for my sake: let not those that seekH1245(PielPtc) thee be confoundedH3637(NiphImpf) for my sake, O GodH430 of Israel.H3478 [7] Because for thy sake I have borneH5375(QalPerf) reproach;H2781 shameH3639 hath coveredH3680(PielPerf) my face.H6440 [8] I am become a strangerH2114(HophPtc) unto my brethren,H251 and an alienH5237 unto my mother’sH517 children.H1121 [9] For the zealH7068 of thine houseH1004 hath eaten me up;H398(QalPerf) and the reproachesH2781 of them that reproachedH2778(QalActPtc) thee are fallenH5307(QalPerf) upon me. [10] When I wept,H1058(QalImpf) [and chastened] my soulH5315 with fasting,H6685 that was to my reproach.H2781 [11] I madeH5414(QalImpf) sackclothH8242 also my garment;H3830 and I became a proverbH4912 to them. [12] They that sit inH3427(QalActPtc) the gateH8179 speakH7878(QalImpf) against me; and I [was] the songH5058 of the drunkards.H8354(QalActPtc) [13] But as for me, my prayerH8605 [is] unto thee, O Lord,H3068 [in] an acceptableH7522 time:H6256 O God,H430 in the multitudeH7230 of thy mercyH2617 hearH6030(QalImpv) me, in the truthH571 of thy salvation.H3468 [14] DeliverH5337(HiphImpv) me out of the mire,H2916 and let me not sink:H2883(QalImpf) let me be deliveredH5337(NiphImpf) from them that hateH8130(QalActPtc) me, and out of the deepH4615 waters.H4325 [15] Let not the waterfloodH4325 overflowH7857(QalImpf) me, neither let the deepH4688 swallow me up,H1104(QalImpf) and let not the pitH875 shutH332(QalImpf) her mouthH6310 upon me. [16] HearH6030(QalImpv) me, O Lord;H3068 for thy lovingkindnessH2617 [is] good:H2896 turnH6437(QalImpv) unto me according to the multitudeH7230 of thy tender mercies.H7356 [17] And hideH5641(HiphImpf) not thy faceH6440 from thy servant;H5650 for I am in trouble:H6887(QalPerf) hearH6030(QalImpv) me speedily.H4118 [18] Draw nighH7126(QalImpv) unto my soul,H5315 [and] redeemH1350(QalImpv) it: deliverH6299(QalImpv) me because of mine enemies.H341(QalActPtc) [19] Thou hast knownH3045(QalPerf) my reproach,H2781 and my shame,H1322 and my dishonour:H3639 mine adversariesH6887(QalActPtc) [are] all before thee. [20] ReproachH2781 hath brokenH7665(QalPerf) my heart;H3820 and I am full of heaviness:H5136(QalImpf) and I lookedH6960(PielImpf) [for some] to take pity,H5110(QalInf) but [there was] none; and for comforters,H5162(PielPtc) but I foundH4672(QalPerf) none. [21] They gaveH5414(QalImpf) me also gallH7219 for my meat;H1267 and in my thirstH6772 they gave me vinegarH2558 to drink.H8248(HiphImpf) [22] Let their tableH7979 become a snareH6341 beforeH6440 them: and [that which should have been] for [their] welfare,H7965 [let it become] a trap.H4170 [23] Let their eyesH5869 be darkened,H2821(QalImpf) that they seeH7200(QalInf) not; and make their loinsH4975 continuallyH8548 to shake.H4571(HiphImpv) [24] Pour outH8210(QalImpv) thine indignationH2195 upon them, and let thy wrathfulH2740 angerH639 take holdH5381(HiphImpf) of them. [25] Let their habitationH2918 be desolate;H8074(NiphPtc) [and] let none dwellH3427(QalActPtc) in their tents.H168 [26] For they persecuteH7291(QalPerf) [him] whom thou hast smitten;H5221(HiphPerf) and they talkH5608(PielImpf) to the griefH4341 of those whom thou hast wounded.H2491 [27] AddH5414(QalImpv) iniquityH5771 unto their iniquity:H5771 and let them not comeH935(QalImpf) into thy righteousness.H6666 [28] Let them be blottedH4229(NiphImpf) out of the bookH5612 of the living,H2416 and not be writtenH3789(NiphImpf) with the righteous.H6662 [29] But I [am] poorH6041 and sorrowful:H3510(QalActPtc) let thy salvation,H3444 O God,H430 set me up on high.H7682(PielImpf) [30] I will praiseH1984(PielImpf) the nameH8034 of GodH430 with a song,H7892 and will magnifyH1431(PielImpf) him with thanksgiving.H8426 [31] [This] also shall pleaseH3190 the LordH3068 betterH3190(QalImpf) than an oxH7794 [or] bullockH6499 that hath hornsH7160(HiphPtc) and hoofs.H6536(HiphPtc) [32] The humbleH6035 shall seeH7200(QalPerf) [this, and] be glad:H8055(QalImpf) and your heartH3824 shall liveH2421(QalImpf) that seekH1875(QalActPtc) God.H430 [33] For the LordH3068 hearethH8085(QalActPtc) the poor,H34 and despisethH959(QalPerf) not his prisoners.H615 [34] Let the heavenH8064 and earthH776 praiseH1984(PielImpf) him, the seas,H3220 and every thing that movethH7430(QalActPtc) therein. [35] For GodH430 will saveH3467(HiphImpf) Zion,H6726 and will buildH1129(QalImpf) the citiesH5892 of Judah:H3063 that they may dwellH3427(QalPerf) there, and have it in possession.H3423(QalPerf) [36] The seedH2233 also of his servantsH5650 shall inheritH5157(QalImpf) it: and they that loveH157(QalActPtc) his nameH8034 shall dwellH7931(QalImpf) therein.Byzantine Greek New Testament
