1 | Save
me, O God; for the waters are come in unto my soul. |
2 | I sink in deep mire, where there is no standing: I
am come into deep waters, where the floods overflow me. |
3 | I am weary of my crying: my throat is
dried: mine eyes fail while I wait for my God. |
4 | 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.
John 15:25
|
5 | O God, thou knowest my foolishness; and
my sins are not hid from thee. |
6
| 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. |
7 | Because for thy
sake I have borne reproach; shame hath covered my face. |
8 | I am become a stranger unto my brethren,
and an alien unto my mother's children. |
9 | For the zeal of thine house hath eaten me up;
and
the reproaches of them that reproached thee are fallen upon me.
John 2:17 Rom 15:3
|
10 | When I wept, and chastened my soul
with fasting, that was to my reproach. |
11 | I made sackcloth also my garment; and I became a
proverb to them. |
12 | They
that sit in the gate speak against me; and I was the song of the drunkards. |
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.
Rom 11:9
|
23 |
Let their eyes be darkened, that they see not; and make their
loins continually to shake.
Rom 11:10
|
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.
Acts 1:20
|
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. |
28 | Let them be blotted out of the book of
the living, and not be written with the righteous. |
29 | But I am poor and sorrowful: let thy salvation, O
God, set me up on high. |
30 |
I will praise the name of God with a song, and will magnify him with
thanksgiving. |
31 | This
also shall please the LORD better than an ox or bullock that hath horns and
hoofs. |
32 | The humble
shall see this, and be glad: and your heart shall live that seek God. |
33 | For the LORD heareth the poor,
and despiseth not his prisoners. |
34 | Let the heaven and earth praise him, the seas, and every thing
that moveth therein. |
35 |
For God will save Zion, and will build the cities of Judah: that they may dwell
there, and have it in possession. |
36 | The seed also of his servants shall inherit it: and they that
love his name shall dwell therein. |
