14Do not allow me to sink anymore in the mud. Rescue me from those who hate me! Lift me up out of these deep waters!
15Do not allow flood waters to swirl around me, do not allow the deep mud to swallow me; keep me from sinking into the pit of death MET.
16O Yahweh, answer my prayer and help me because you are good and love me faithfully.
17Do not ◄hide yourself from/refuse to hear► me; answer me quickly because I am in great trouble.
18Come near to me and save me; rescue me from my enemies.
19You know that I am insulted and that people cause me to feel ashamed and dishonored; you know who all my enemies are.
20Their insults have deeply offended me, and I ◄feel helpless/am in despair►. I searched for someone who would pity me, but there was no one. I wanted someone to encourage/comfort me, but there were none.
21Instead, they gave me food that tasted like poison, and when I was thirsty, they gave me sour wine to drink.
22I hope/desire that the feasts MTY that they enjoy will ◄become a snare for/bring trouble to► them, and that those whom they invite to the sacrificial feasts will also be trapped.
23I hope/desire that their eyesight will become dim so that they cannot see anything, and that their backs/bodies will become weaker and weaker.
24Show them that you are very angry with them! Because of your great/furious anger, chase after them and catch them.
25Cause their towns to become abandoned/deserted and that there will be no one left to live in their tents/houses.
26Do this because they persecute those whom you have punished, ◄they talk about the sins of/they want to hurt even more► those whom you have wounded.
