15
Let not the floodwater overflow me, Nor let the deep swallow me up; And let not the pit shut its mouth on me.
16
Hear me, O Lord, for Your lovingkindness is good; Turn to me according to the multitude of Your tender mercies.
17
And do not hide Your face from Your servant, For I am in trouble; Hear me speedily.
18
Draw near to my soul, and redeem it; Deliver me because of my enemies.
19
You know my reproach, my shame, and my dishonor; My adversaries are all before You.
20
Reproach has broken my heart, And I am full of heaviness; I looked for someone to take pity, but there was none; And for comforters, but I found none.
21
They also gave me gall for my food, And for my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink.
22
Let their table become a snare before them, And their well-being a trap.
23
Let their eyes be darkened, so that they do not see; And make their loins shake continually.
24
Pour out Your indignation upon them, And let Your wrathful anger take hold of them.
25
Let their dwelling place be desolate; Let no one live in their tents.
