Psalms 69:14-20

14Rescue me from the mud! Don’t let me sink! Deliver me from those who hate me, from the deep water!

15Don’t let the current overpower me! Don’t let the deep swallow me up! Don’t let the pit devour me!

16Answer me, O Lord, for your loyal love is good! Because of your great compassion, turn toward me!

17Do not ignore your servant, for I am in trouble! Answer me right away!

18Come near me and redeem me! Because of my enemies, rescue me!

19You know how I am insulted, humiliated and disgraced; you can see all my enemies.

20Their insults are painful and make me lose heart; I look for sympathy, but receive none, for comforters, but find none.
