Psalms 69:10-24

¹⁰I wept and my soule fasted, but that was to my reproofe.

¹¹I put on a sacke also: and I became a prouerbe vnto them.

¹²They that sate in the gate, spake of mee, and the drunkards sang of me.

¹³But Lord, I make my praier vnto thee in an acceptable time, euen in the multitude of thy mercie: O God, heare me in the trueth of thy saluation.

¹⁴Deliuer mee out of the myre, that I sinke not: let me be deliuered from them that hate me, and out of the deepe waters.

¹⁵Let not the water flood drowne mee, neither let the deepe swallowe me vp: and let not the pit shut her mouth vpon me.

¹⁶Heare me, O Lord, for thy louing kindnes is good: turne vnto me according to ye multitude of thy tender mercies.

¹⁷And hide not thy face from thy seruant, for I am in trouble: make haste and heare me.

¹⁸Draw neere vnto my soule and redeeme it: deliuer me because of mine enemies.

¹⁹Thou hast knowen my reproofe and my shame, and my dishonour: all mine aduersaries are before thee.

²⁰Rebuke hath broken mine heart, and I am full of heauinesse, and I looked for some to haue pitie on me, but there was none: and for comforters, but I found none.

²¹For they gaue me gall in my meate, and in my thirst they gaue me vineger to drinke.

²²Let their table be a snare before them, and their prosperitie their ruine.

²³Let their eyes be blinded that they see not: and make their loynes alway to tremble.

²⁴Powre out thine anger vpon them, and let thy wrathfull displeasure take them.
