Psalms 69:1-4

1Save me, O God, For the waters have threatened my life [they have come up to my neck].

2I have sunk in deep mire, where there is no foothold; I have come into deep waters, where a flood overwhelms me.

3I am weary with my crying; my throat is parched; My eyes fail while I wait [with confident expectation] for my God.

4Those who hate me without cause are more than the hairs of my head; Those who would destroy me are powerful, being my enemies wrongfully; I am forced to restore what I did not steal.
