1 To the chief Musician 5329 upon Shoshannim 7799, A Psalm of David 1732. Save 3467 me, O God 430; for the waters 4325 are come 935 in unto my soul 5315.
2 I sink 2883 in deep 4688 mire 3121, where there is no standing 4613: I am come 935 into deep 4615 waters 4325, where the floods 7641 overflow 7857 me.
3 I am weary 3021 of my crying 7121: my throat 1627 is dried 2787: mine eyes 5869 fail 3615 while I wait 3176 for my God 430.
4 They that hate 8130 me without a cause 2600 are more 7231 than the hairs 8185 of mine head 7218: they that would destroy 6789 me, being mine enemies 341 wrongfully 8267, are mighty 6105: then I restored 7725 that which I took not away 1497.
5 O God 430, thou knowest 3045 my foolishness 200; and my sins 819 are not hid 3582 from thee.
6 Let not them that wait 6960 on thee, O Lord 136 GOD 3069 of hosts 6635, be ashamed 954 for my sake: let not those that seek 1245 thee be confounded 3637 for my sake, O God 430 of Israel 3478.
7 Because for thy sake I have borne 5375 reproach 2781; shame 3639 hath covered 3680 my face 6440.
8 I am become a stranger 2114 unto my brethren 251, and an alien 5237 unto my mother's 517 children 1121.
9 For the zeal 7068 of thine house 1004 hath eaten me up 398; and the reproaches 2781 of them that reproached 2778 thee are fallen 5307 upon me.
10 When I wept 1058, and chastened my soul 5315 with fasting 6685, that was to my reproach 2781.
11 I made 5414 sackcloth 8242 also my garment 3830; and I became a proverb 4912 to them.
12 They that sit in 3427 the gate 8179 speak 7878 against me; and I was the song 5058 of the drunkards 8354 7941.
13 But as for me, my prayer 8605 is unto thee, O LORD 3068, in an acceptable 7522 time 6256: O God 430, in the multitude 7230 of thy mercy 2617 hear 6030 me, in the truth 571 of thy salvation 3468.
14 Deliver 5337 me out of the mire 2916, and let me not sink 2883: let me be delivered 5337 from them that hate 8130 me, and out of the deep 4615 waters 4325.
15 Let not the waterflood 4325 7641 overflow 7857 me, neither let the deep 4688 swallow me up 1104, and let not the pit 875 shut 332 her mouth 6310 upon me.
16 Hear 6030 me, O LORD 3068; for thy lovingkindness 2617 is good 2896: turn 6437 unto me according to the multitude 7230 of thy tender mercies 7356.
17 And hide 5641 not thy face 6440 from thy servant 5650; for I am in trouble 6887: hear 6030 me speedily 4118.
18 Draw nigh 7126 unto my soul 5315, and redeem 1350 it: deliver 6299 me because of mine enemies 341.
19 Thou hast known 3045 my reproach 2781, and my shame 1322, and my dishonour 3639: mine adversaries 6887 are all before thee.
20 Reproach 2781 hath broken 7665 my heart 3820; and I am full of heaviness 5136: and I looked 6960 for some to take pity 5110, but there was none; and for comforters 5162, but I found 4672 none.
21 They gave 5414 me also gall 7219 for my meat 1267; and in my thirst 6772 they gave me vinegar 2558 to drink 8248.
22 Let their table 7979 become a snare 6341 before 6440 them: and that which should have been for their welfare 7965, let it become a trap 4170.
23 Let their eyes 5869 be darkened 2821, that they see 7200 not; and make their loins 4975 continually 8548 to shake 4571.
24 Pour out 8210 thine indignation 2195 upon them, and let thy wrathful 2740 anger 639 take hold 5381 of them.
25 Let their habitation 2918 be desolate 8074; and let none dwell 3427 in their tents 168.
26 For they persecute 7291 him whom thou hast smitten 5221; and they talk 5608 to the grief 4341 of those whom thou hast wounded 2491.
27 Add 5414 iniquity 5771 unto their iniquity 5771: and let them not come 935 into thy righteousness 6666.
28 Let them be blotted 4229 out of the book 5612 of the living 2416, and not be written 3789 with the righteous 6662.
29 But I am poor 6041 and sorrowful 3510: let thy salvation 3444, O God 430, set me up on high 7682.
30 I will praise 1984 the name 8034 of God 430 with a song 7892, and will magnify 1431 him with thanksgiving 8426.
31 This also shall please 3190 0 the LORD 3068 better 3190 than an ox 7794 or bullock 6499 that hath horns 7160 and hoofs 6536.
32 The humble 6035 shall see 7200 this, and be glad 8055: and your heart 3824 shall live 2421 that seek 1875 God 430.
33 For the LORD 3068 heareth 8085 the poor 34, and despiseth 959 not his prisoners 615.
34 Let the heaven 8064 and earth 776 praise 1984 him, the seas 3220, and every thing that moveth 7430 therein.
35 For God 430 will save 3467 Zion 6726, and will build 1129 the cities 5892 of Judah 3063: that they may dwell 3427 there, and have it in possession 3423.
36 The seed 2233 also of his servants 5650 shall inherit 5157 it: and they that love 157 his name 8034 shall dwell 7931 therein.
