Save me, O God; for the waters are
come in unto my soul.
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.
O God, thou knowest my foolishness;
and my sins are not hid from thee.
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.
Because for thy sake I have borne reproach;
shame hath covered my face.
I am become a stranger unto my brethren,
and an alien unto my mother's children.
For the zeal of thine house hath eaten me
up; and the reproaches of them that
reproached thee are fallen upon me.
When I wept, and chastened my soul
with fasting, that was to my reproach.
I made sackcloth also my garment;
and I became a proverb to them.
They that sit in the gate speak against
me; and I was the song of the drunkards.
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.
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.
Let not the waterflood overflow me, neither
let the deep swallow me up, and let not the
pit shut her mouth upon me.
Hear me, O Lord; for thy lovingkindness is
good: turn unto me according to the
multitude of thy tender mercies.
And hide not thy face from thy servant;
for I am in trouble: hear me speedily.
Draw nigh unto my soul, and redeem it:
deliver me because of mine enemies.
Thou hast known my reproach, and my
shame, and my dishonour: mine
adversaries are all before thee.
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.
They gave me also gall for my meat;
and in my thirst they gave me vinegar
to drink.
Let their table become a snare before
them: and that which should have been
for their welfare, let it become a trap.
Let their eyes be darkened, that they
see not; and make their loins continually
to shake.
Pour out thine indignation upon them,
and let thy wrathful anger take hold of them.
Let their habitation be desolate; and let none
dwell in their tents.
For they persecute him whom thou hast
smitten; and they talk to the grief of
those whom thou hast wounded.
Add iniquity unto their iniquity: and let
them not come into thy righteousness.
Let them be blotted out of the book of
the living, and not be written with the
righteous.
But I am poor and sorrowful: let thy
salvation, O God, set me up on high.
I will praise the name of God with a
song, and will magnify him with
thanksgiving.
The humble shall see this, and be
glad: and your heart shall live that
seek God.
For the Lord heareth the poor, and
despiseth not his prisoners.
Let the heaven and earth praise him,
the seas, and every thing that moveth
therein.
For God will save Zion, and will build
the cities of Judah: that they may dwell
there, and have it in possession.
The seed also of his servants shall inherit
it: and they that love his name shall dwell
therein.
In Jesus Name I Pray,
Amen
