19_PSA_69_01 to the chief Musician upon Shoshannim , [ A Psalm ] of David . save me , O God ; for the waters are come in unto [ my ] soul .
19_PSA_69_02 I sink in deep mire , where [ there Is ] no standing : I am come into deep waters , where the floods overflow me .
19_PSA_69_03 I am weary of my crying : my throat Is dried : mine eyes fail while I wait for my God .
19_PSA_69_04 they that hate me without A cause are more than the hairs of mine head : they that would destroy me , [ being ] mine enemies wrongfully , are mighty : Then I restored [ that ] which I took not away .
19_PSA_69_05 O God , thou knowest my foolishness ; And my sins are not hid from thee .
19_PSA_69_06 let not them that wait on thee , O LORD God of hosts , be ashamed for my sake : let not those that seek thee be confounded for my sake , O God of Israel .
19_PSA_69_07 because for thy sake I have borne reproach ; shame hath covered my face .
19_PSA_69_08 I am become A stranger unto my brethren , And an alien unto my mother's children .
19_PSA_69_09 for the zeal of thine house hath eaten me up ; And the reproaches of them that reproached thee are fallen upon me .
19_PSA_69_10 when I wept , [ And chastened ] my soul with fasting , that was to my reproach .
19_PSA_69_11 I made sackcloth also my garment ; And I became A proverb to them .
19_PSA_69_12 they that sit in the gate speak against me ; And I [ was ] the song of the drunkards .
19_PSA_69_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 .
19_PSA_69_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 .
19_PSA_69_15 let not the waterflood overflow me , neither let the deep swallow me up , And let not the pit shut her mouth upon me .
19_PSA_69_16 hear me , O LORD ; for thy lovingkindness [ Is ] good : turn unto me according to the multitude of thy tender mercies .
19_PSA_69_17 And hide not thy face from thy servant ; for I am in Trouble : hear me speedily .
19_PSA_69_18 draw nigh unto my soul , [ And ] redeem it : deliver me because of mine enemies .
19_PSA_69_19 thou hast known my reproach , And my shame , And my dishonour : mine adversaries [ are ] all before thee .
19_PSA_69_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 .
19_PSA_69_21 they gave me also gall for my meat ; And in my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink .
19_PSA_69_22 let their table become A snare before them : And [ that which should have been ] for [ their ] welfare , [ let it become ] A trap .
19_PSA_69_23 let their eyes be darkened , that they see not ; And make their loins continually to shake .
19_PSA_69_24 Pour out thine indignation upon them , And let thy wrathful anger take hold of them .
19_PSA_69_25 let their habitation be desolate ; [ And ] let none dwell in their tents .
19_PSA_69_26 for they persecute [ him ] whom thou hast smitten ; And they talk to the grief of those whom thou hast wounded .
19_PSA_69_27 add iniquity unto their iniquity : And let them not come into thy righteousness .
19_PSA_69_28 let them be blotted out of the book of the living , And not be written with the righteous .
19_PSA_69_29 but I [ am ] poor And sorrowful : let thy salvation , O God , set me up on high .
19_PSA_69_30 I will praise the name of God with A song , And will magnify him with thanksgiving .
19_PSA_69_31 [ this ] also shall please the LORD Better than an ox [ or ] bullock that hath horns And hoofs .
19_PSA_69_32 the humble shall see [ this , And ] be glad : And your heart shall live that seek God .
19_PSA_69_33 for the LORD heareth the poor , And despiseth not his prisoners .
19_PSA_69_34 let the heaven And earth praise him , the seas , And every thing that moveth therein .
19_PSA_69_35 for God will save Zion , And will build the cities of Judah : that they may dwell there , And have it in possession .
19_PSA_69_36 the seed also of his servants shall inherit it : And they that love his name shall dwell therein .
