Psalms 69:15-18

¹⁵Don’t let the flood waters overwhelm me, neither let the deep swallow me up. Don’t let the pit shut its mouth on me.

¹⁶Answer me, Yahweh, for your loving kindness is good. According to the multitude of your tender mercies, turn to me.

¹⁷Don’t hide your face from your servant, for I am in distress. Answer me speedily!

¹⁸Draw near to my soul and redeem it. Ransom me because of my enemies.
