Psalms 69:13-27
-
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.
-
25 Let their habitation be desolate; and let none dwell in their tents.
-
26 For they persecute him whom thou hast smitten; and they talk to the grief of those whom thou hast wounded.
-
27 Add iniquity unto their iniquity: and let them not come into thy righteousness.
