Psalms 69
69:1

Save3467 me, O Elohim;430 for the waters4325 are come in935 unto my soul.5315

69:2

I sink2883 in deep4688 mire,3121 where there is no standing:4613 I am come935 into deep4615 waters,4325 where the floods7641 overflow7857 me.

69:3

I am weary3021 of my crying:7121 my throat1627 is dried:2787 mine eyes5869 fail3615 while I wait3176 for my Elohim.430

69:4

They that hate8130 me without a cause2600 are more7231 than the hairs8185 of mine head:7218 they that would destroy6789 me, being mine enemies341 wrongfully,8267 are mighty:6105 then I restored7725 that which I took not away.1497

69:5

O Elohim,430 thou knowest3045 my foolishness;200 and my sins819 are not hid3582 from thee.

69:6

Let not them that wait6960 on thee, O my Sovereign136 Yahweh3069 of hosts,6635 be ashamed954 for my sake: let not those that seek1245 thee be confounded3637 for my sake, O Elohim430 of Israel.3478

69:7

Because for thy sake I have borne5375 reproach;2781 shame3639 hath covered3680 my face.6440

69:8

I am become a stranger2114 unto my brethren,251 and an alien5237 unto my mother's517 children.1121

69:9

For the zeal7068 of thine house1004 hath eaten me398 up; and the reproaches2781 of them that reproached2778 thee are fallen5307 upon me.

69:10

When I wept,1058 and chastened my soul5315 with fasting,6685 that was to my reproach.2781

69:11

I made5414 sackcloth8242 also my garment;3830 and I became a proverb4912 to them.

69:12

They that sit in3427 the gate8179 speak7878 against me; and I was the song5058 of the drunkards.8354

69:13

But as for me, my prayer8605 is unto thee, O Yahweh,3068 in an acceptable7522 time:6256 O Elohim,430 in the multitude7230 of thy mercy2617 hear6030 me, in the truth571 of thy salvation.3468

69:14

Deliver5337 me out of the mire,2916 and let me not sink:2883 let me be delivered5337 from them that hate8130 me, and out of the deep4615 waters.4325

69:15

Let not the waterflood4325 overflow7857 me, neither let the deep4688 swallow me up,1104 and let not the pit875 shut332 her mouth6310 upon me.

69:16

Hear6030 me, O Yahweh;3068 for thy lovingkindness2617 is good:2896 turn6437 unto me according to the multitude7230 of thy tender mercies.7356

69:17

And hide5641 not thy face6440 from thy servant;5650 for I am in trouble:6887 hear6030 me speedily.4118

69:18

Draw nigh7126 unto my soul,5315 and redeem1350 it: deliver6299 me because of mine enemies.341

69:19

Thou hast known3045 my reproach,2781 and my shame,1322 and my dishonour:3639 mine adversaries6887 are all before thee.

69:20

Reproach2781 hath broken7665 my heart;3820 and I am full of heaviness:5136 and I looked6960 for some to take pity,5110 but there was none; and for comforters,5162 but I found4672 none.

69:21

They gave5414 me also gall7219 for my meat;1267 and in my thirst6772 they gave me vinegar2558 to drink.8248

69:22

Let their table7979 become a snare6341 before6440 them: and that which should have been for their welfare,7965 let it become a trap.4170

69:23

Let their eyes5869 be darkened,2821 that they see7200 not; and make their loins4975 continually8548 to shake.4571

69:24

Pour out8210 thine indignation2195 upon them, and let thy wrathful2740 anger639 take hold5381 of them.

69:25

Let their habitation2918 be desolate;8074 and let none dwell3427 in their tents.168

69:26

For they persecute7291 him whom thou hast smitten;5221 and they talk5608 to the grief4341 of those whom thou hast wounded.2491

69:27

Add5414 iniquity5771 unto their iniquity:5771 and let them not come935 into thy righteousness.6666

69:28

Let them be blotted out4229 of the book5612 of the living,2416 and not be written3789 with the righteous.6662

69:29

But I am poor6041 and sorrowful:3510 let thy salvation,3444 O Elohim,430 set me up on high.7682

69:30

I will praise1984 the name8034 of Elohim430 with a song,7892 and will magnify1431 him with thanksgiving.8426

69:31

This also shall please3190 Yahweh3068 better than an ox7794 or bullock6499 that hath horns7160 and hoofs.6536

69:32

The humble6035 shall see7200 this, and be glad:8055 and your heart3824 shall live2421 that seek1875 Elohim.430

69:33

For Yahweh3068 heareth8085 the poor,34 and despiseth959 not his prisoners.615

69:34

Let the heaven8064 and earth776 praise1984 him, the seas,3220 and every thing that moveth7430 therein.

69:35

For Elohim430 will save3467 Zion,6726 and will build1129 the cities5892 of Judah:3063 that they may dwell3427 there, and have it in possession.3423

69:36

The seed2233 also of his servants5650 shall inherit5157 it: and they that love157 his name8034 shall dwell7931 therein.
