< Psalms 69 >
1 Unto the end, for them that shall be changed; for David. SAVE me, O God: for the waters are come in even unto my soul.
To the choirmaster on Shoshannim of David. Save me O God for they have come waters to [the] neck.
2 I stick fast in the mire of the deep: and there is no sure standing. I am come into the depth of the sea: and a tempest hath overwhelmed me.
I have sunk - in mire of depth and there not [is] a foothold I have come in depths of water and a flood it has overflowed me.
3 I have laboured with crying; my jaws are become hoarse: my eyes have failed, whilst I hope in my God.
I have become weary by calling out my it has become parched throat my they have failed eyes my waiting for God my.
4 They are multiplied above the hairs of my head, who hate me without cause. My enemies are grown strong who have wrongfully persecuted me: then did I pay that which I took not away.
They are many - more than [the] hairs of head my [those who] hate me without cause they are numerous [those who] destroy me enemies my falsehood [that] which not I stole then I will return.
5 O God, thou knowest my foolishness; and my offences are not hidden from thee:
O God you you know folly my and guilt my from you not they are hidden.
6 Let not them be ashamed for me, who look for thee, O Lord, the Lord of hosts. Let them not be confounded on my account, who seek thee, O God of Israel.
May not they be ashamed in me - [those who] wait for you O Lord Yahweh of hosts may not they be humiliated in me [those who] seek you O God of Israel.
7 Because for thy sake I have borne reproach; shame hath covered my face.
For on you I have borne reproach it has covered ignominy face my.
8 I am become a stranger to my brethren, and an alien to the sons of my mother.
Estranged I have become to brothers my and a foreigner to [the] children of mother my.
9 For the zeal of thy house hath eaten me up: and the reproaches of them that reproached thee are fallen upon me.
For [the] zeal of house your it has consumed me and [the] reproaches of [those who] reproach you they have fallen on me.
10 And I covered my soul in fasting: and it was made a reproach to me.
And I wept with fasting self my and it became reproach to me.
11 And I made haircloth my garment: and I became a byword to them.
And I made! clothing my sackcloth and I became for them a byword.
12 They that sat in the gate spoke against me: and they that drank wine made me their song.
They speak in me [those who] sit of [the] gate and taunt songs of drinkers of strong drink.
13 But as for me, my prayer is to thee, O Lord; for the time of thy good pleasure, O God. In the multitude of thy mercy hear me, in the truth of thy salvation.
And I prayer my [is] to you - O Yahweh a time of favor O God in [the] greatness of covenant loyalty your answer me in [the] faithfulness of salvation your.
14 Draw me out of the mire, that I may not stick fast: deliver me from them that hate me, and out of the deep waters.
Deliver me from [the] mud and may not I sink may I be delivered from [those who] hate me and from depths of water.
15 Let not the tempest of water drown me, nor the deep swallow me up: and let not the pit shut her mouth upon me.
May not it overflow me - a flood of water and may not it swallow up me [the] deep and may not it close over me [the] pit mouth its.
16 Hear me, O Lord, for thy mercy is kind; look upon me according to the multitude of thy tender mercies.
Answer me O Yahweh for [is] good covenant loyalty your according to [the] greatness of compassion your turn to me.
17 And turn not away thy face from thy servant: for I am in trouble, hear me speedily.
And may not you hide face your from servant your for it is distress to me hurry answer me.
18 Attend to my soul, and deliver it: save me because of my enemies.
Draw near! to self my redeem it on account of enemies my ransom me.
19 Thou knowest my reproach, and my confusion, and my shame.
You you know reproach my and shame my and ignominy my [are] before you all opposers my.
20 In thy sight are all they that afflict me; my heart hath expected reproach and misery. And I looked for one that would grieve together with me, but there was none: and for one that would comfort me, and I found none.
Reproach - it has broken heart my and I have become sick! and I waited to show sympathy and there not and for comforters and not I found [them].
21 And they gave me gall for my food, and in my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink.
And they put in food my poison and for thirst my they gave to drink me vinegar.
22 Let their table become as a snare before them, and a recompense, and a stumblingblock.
May it become table their before them a trap and for allies a snare.
23 Let their eyes be darkened that they see not; and their back bend thou down always.
May they grow dim eyes their from seeing and loins their continually make to shake.
24 Pour out thy indignation upon them: and let thy wrathful anger take hold of them.
Pour out on them indignation your and [the] burning of anger your may it overtake them.
25 Let their habitation be made desolate: and let there be none to dwell in their tabernacles.
May it be encampment their made desolate in tents their may not anyone be dwelling.
26 Because they have persecuted him whom thou hast smitten; and they have added to the grief of my wounds.
For you [those] whom you struck they have harassed and concerning [the] pain of fatally wounded [ones] your they have recounted.
27 Add thou iniquity upon their iniquity: and let them not come into thy justice.
Put! iniquity to iniquity their and may not they come in righteousness your.
28 Let them be blotted out of the book of the living; and with the just let them not be written.
May they be wiped out from [the] scroll of life and with righteous [people] may not they be written down.
29 But I am poor and sorrowful: thy salvation, O God, hath set me up.
And I [am] afflicted and [am] in pain salvation your O God may it set on high me.
30 I will praise the name of God with a canticle: and I will magnify him with praise.
I will praise [the] name of God with a song and I will magnify him with thanksgiving.
31 And it shall please God better than a young calf, that bringeth forth horns and hoofs.
So it may be good to Yahweh more than an ox a young bull having horns having hooves.
32 Let the poor see and rejoice: seek ye God, and your soul shall live.
They will see humble [people] they will rejoice O [you who] seek God and may it live heart your.
33 For the Lord hath heard the poor: and hath not despised his prisoners.
For [is] listening to needy [people] Yahweh and prisoners his not he despises.
34 Let the heavens and the earth praise him; the sea, and every thing that creepeth therein.
May they praise him heaven and earth [the] seas and every [thing which] moves in them.
35 For God will save Sion, and the cities of Juda shall be built up. And they shall dwell there, and acquire it by inheritance.
For God - he will save Zion so he may rebuild [the] cities of Judah and they will dwell there and they will take possession of it.
36 And the seed of his servants shall possess it; and they that love his name shall dwell therein.
And [the] offspring of servants his they will inherit it and [those who] love name his they will dwell in it.
