Psalms 69

NIV

RHE

1 Save me, O God, for the waters have come up to my neck.
1 (68-1) <Unto the end, for them that shall be changed; for David.> (68-2) Save me, O God: for the waters are come in even unto my soul.
2 I sink in the miry depths, where there is no foothold. I have come into the deep waters; the floods engulf me.
2 (68-3) I stick fast in the mire of the deep and there is no sure standing. I am come into the depth of the sea, and a tempest hath overwhelmed me.
3 I am worn out calling for help; my throat is parched. My eyes fail, looking for my God.
3 (68-4) I have laboured with crying; my jaws are become hoarse, my eyes have failed, whilst I hope in 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.
4 (68-5) They are multiplied above the hairs of my head, who hate me without cause. My enemies are grown strong who have wrongfully persecuted me: then did I pay that which I took not away.
5 You, God, know my folly; my guilt is not hidden from you.
5 (68-6) O God, thou knowest my foolishness; and my offences are not hidden from thee:
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.
6 (68-7) Let not them be ashamed for me, who look for thee, O Lord, the Lord of hosts. Let them not be confounded on my account, who seek thee, O God of Israel.
7 For I endure scorn for your sake, and shame covers my face.
7 (68-8) Because for thy sake I have borne reproach; shame hath covered my face.
8 I am a foreigner to my own family, a stranger to my own mother’s children;
8 (68-9) I am become a stranger to my brethren, and an alien to the sons of my mother.
9 for zeal for your house consumes me, and the insults of those who insult you fall on me.
9 (68-10) For the zeal of thy house hath eaten me up: and the reproaches of them that reproached thee are fallen upon me.
10 When I weep and fast, I must endure scorn;
10 (68-11) And I covered my soul in fasting: and it was made a reproach to me.
11 when I put on sackcloth, people make sport of me.
11 (68-12) And I made haircloth my garment: and I became a byword to them.
12 Those who sit at the gate mock me, and I am the song of the drunkards.
12 (68-13) They that sat in the gate spoke against me: and they that drank wine made me their song.
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.
13 (68-14) But as for me, my prayer is to thee, O Lord; for the time of thy good pleasure, O God. In the multitude of thy mercy hear me, in the truth of thy salvation.
14 Rescue me from the mire, do not let me sink; deliver me from those who hate me, from the deep waters.
14 (68-15) Draw me out of the mire, that I may not stick fast: deliver me from them that hate me, and out of 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.
15 (68-16) Let not the tempest of water drown me, nor the deep water swallow me up: and let not the pit shut her mouth upon me.
16 Answer me, LORD, out of the goodness of your love; in your great mercy turn to me.
16 (68-17) Hear me, O Lord, for thy mercy is kind; look upon me according to the multitude of thy tender mercies.
17 Do not hide your face from your servant; answer me quickly, for I am in trouble.
17 (68-18) And turn not away thy face from thy servant: for I am in trouble, hear me speedily.
18 Come near and rescue me; deliver me because of my foes.
18 (68-19) Attend to my soul, and deliver it: save me because of my enemies.
19 You know how I am scorned, disgraced and shamed; all my enemies are before you.
19 (68-20) Thou knowest my reproach, and my confusion, and my shame.
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.
20 (68-21) In thy sight are all they that afflict me; my heart hath expected reproach and misery. And I looked for one that would grieve together with me, but there was none: and for one that would comfort me, and I found none.
21 They put gall in my food and gave me vinegar for my thirst.
21 (68-22) And they gave me gall for my food, and in my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink.
22 May the table set before them become a snare; may it become retribution and a trap.
22 (68-23) Let their table become as a snare before them, and a recompense, and a stumblingblock.
23 May their eyes be darkened so they cannot see, and their backs be bent forever.
23 (68-24) Let their eyes be darkened that they see not; and their back bend thou down always.
24 Pour out your wrath on them; let your fierce anger overtake them.
24 (68-25) Pour out thy indignation upon them: and let thy wrathful anger take hold of them.
25 May their place be deserted; let there be no one to dwell in their tents.
25 (68-26) Let their habitation be made desolate: and let there be none to dwell in their tabernacles.
26 For they persecute those you wound and talk about the pain of those you hurt.
26 (68-27) Because they have persecuted him whom thou hast smitten; and they have added to the grief of my wounds.
27 Charge them with crime upon crime; do not let them share in your salvation.
27 (68-28) Add thou iniquity upon their iniquity: and let them not come into thy justice.
28 May they be blotted out of the book of life and not be listed with the righteous.
28 (68-29) Let them be blotted out of the book of the living; and with the just let them not be written.
29 But as for me, afflicted and in pain— may your salvation, God, protect me.
29 (68-30) But I am poor and sorrowful: thy salvation, O God, hath set me up.
30 I will praise God’s name in song and glorify him with thanksgiving.
30 (68-31) I will praise the name of God with a canticle: and I will magnify him with praise.
31 This will please the LORD more than an ox, more than a bull with its horns and hooves.
31 (68-32) And it shall please God better than a young calf, that bringeth forth horns and hoofs.
32 The poor will see and be glad— you who seek God, may your hearts live!
32 (68-33) Let the poor see and rejoice: seek ye God, and your soul shall live.
33 The LORD hears the needy and does not despise his captive people.
33 (68-34) For the Lord hath heard the poor: and hath not despised his prisoners.
34 Let heaven and earth praise him, the seas and all that move in them,
34 (68-35) Let the heavens and the earth praise him; the sea, and every thing that creepeth therein.
35 for God will save Zion and rebuild the cities of Judah. Then people will settle there and possess it;
35 (68-36) For God will save Sion, and the cities of Juda shall be built up. And they shall dwell there, and acquire it by inheritance.
36 the children of his servants will inherit it, and those who love his name will dwell there.
36 (68-37) And the seed of his servants shall possess it; and they that love his name shall dwell therein.
