+# Chapter 69
+1 Save me, O God,
+    for the floodwaters are up to my neck.
+2 Deeper and deeper I sink into the mire;
+    I can’t find a foothold.
+I am in deep water,
+    and the floods overwhelm me.
+3 I am exhausted from crying for help;
+    my throat is parched.
+My eyes are swollen with weeping,
+    waiting for my God to help me.
+4 Those who hate me without cause
+    outnumber the hairs on my head.
+Many enemies try to destroy me with lies,
+    demanding that I give back what I didn’t steal.
+5 O God, you know how foolish I am;
+    my sins cannot be hidden from you.
+6 Don’t let those who trust in you be ashamed because of me,
+    O Sovereign Lord of Heaven’s Armies.
+Don’t let me cause them to be humiliated,
+    O God of Israel.
+7 For I endure insults for your sake;
+    humiliation is written all over my face.
+8 Even my own brothers pretend they don’t know me;
+    they treat me like a stranger.
+9 Passion for your house has consumed me,
+    and the insults of those who insult you have fallen on me.
+10 When I weep and fast,
+    they scoff at me.
+11 When I dress in burlap to show sorrow,
+    they make fun of me.
+12 I am the favorite topic of town gossip,
+    and all the drunks sing about me.
+13 But I keep praying to you, Lord,
+    hoping this time you will show me favor.
+In your unfailing love, O God,
+    answer my prayer with your sure salvation.
+14 Rescue me from the mud;
+    don’t let me sink any deeper!
+Save me from those who hate me,
+    and pull me from these deep waters.
+15 Don’t let the floods overwhelm me,
+    or the deep waters swallow me,
+    or the pit of death devour me.
+16 Answer my prayers, O Lord,
+    for your unfailing love is wonderful.
+Take care of me,
+    for your mercy is so plentiful.
+17 Don’t hide from your servant;
+    answer me quickly, for I am in deep trouble!
+18 Come and redeem me;
+    free me from my enemies.
+19 You know of my shame, scorn, and disgrace.
+    You see all that my enemies are doing.
+20 Their insults have broken my heart,
+    and I am in despair.
+If only one person would show some pity;
+    if only one would turn and comfort me.
+21 But instead, they give me poison for food;
+    they offer me sour wine for my thirst.
+22 Let the bountiful table set before them become a snare
+    and their prosperity become a trap.
+23 Let their eyes go blind so they cannot see,
+    and make their bodies shake continually.
+24 Pour out your fury on them;
+    consume them with your burning anger.
+25 Let their homes become desolate
+    and their tents be deserted.
+26 To the one you have punished, they add insult to injury;
+    they add to the pain of those you have hurt.
+27 Pile their sins up high,
+    and don’t let them go free.
+28 Erase their names from the Book of Life;
+    don’t let them be counted among the righteous.
+29 I am suffering and in pain.
+    Rescue me, O God, by your saving power.
+30 Then I will praise God’s name with singing,
+    and I will honor him with thanksgiving.
+31 For this will please the Lord more than sacrificing cattle,
+    more than presenting a bull with its horns and hooves.
+32 The humble will see their God at work and be glad.
+    Let all who seek God’s help be encouraged.
+33 For the Lord hears the cries of the needy;
+    he does not despise his imprisoned people.
+34 Praise him, O heaven and earth,
+    the seas and all that move in them.
+35 For God will save Jerusalem
+    and rebuild the towns of Judah.
+His people will live there
+    and settle in their own land.
+36 The descendants of those who obey him will inherit the land,
+    and those who love him will live there in safety.
