Psalms 69

1

{To the chief Musician. Upon Shoshannim. [A Psalm] of David.} Save me, O God; for the waters are come in unto [my] soul.

2

I sink in deep mire, where there is no standing; I am come into the depths of waters, and the flood overfloweth me.

3

I am weary with my crying, my throat is parched; mine eyes fail while I wait for my God.

4

They that hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of my head; they that would destroy me, being mine enemies wrongfully, are mighty: then I restored that which I took not away.

5

Thou, O God, knowest my foolishness, and my trespasses are not hidden from thee.

6

Let not them that wait on thee, Lord, Jehovah of hosts, be ashamed through me; let not those that seek thee be confounded through me, O God of Israel.

7

Because for thy sake I have borne reproach; confusion hath covered my face.

8

I am become a stranger unto my brethren, and an alien unto my mother's sons;

9

For the zeal of thy house hath devoured me, and the reproaches of them that reproach thee have fallen upon me.

10

And I wept, my soul was fasting: that also was to my reproach; --

11

And I made sackcloth my garment: then I became a proverb to them.

12

They that sit in the gate talk of me, and [I am] the song of the drunkards.

13

But as for me, my prayer is unto thee, Jehovah, in an acceptable time: O God, in the abundance of thy loving-kindness answer me, according to the truth of thy salvation:

14

Deliver me out of the mire, let me not sink; let me be delivered from them that hate me, and out of the depths of waters.

15

Let not the flood of waters overflow me, neither let the deep swallow me up; and let not the pit shut its mouth upon me.

16

Answer me, O Jehovah; for thy loving-kindness is good: according to the abundance of thy tender mercies, turn toward me;

17

And hide not thy face from thy servant, for I am in trouble: answer me speedily.

18

Draw nigh unto my soul, be its redeemer; ransom me because of mine enemies.

19

*Thou* knowest my reproach, and my shame, and my dishonour: mine adversaries are all before thee.

20

Reproach hath broken my heart, and I am overwhelmed: and I looked for sympathy, but there was none; and for comforters, but I found none.

21

Yea, they gave me gall for my food, and in my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink.

22

Let their table become a snare before them, and their very welfare a trap;

23

Let their eyes be darkened, that they see not, and make their loins continually to shake.

24

Pour out thine indignation upon them, and let the fierceness of thine anger take hold of them.

25

Let their habitation be desolate; let there be no dweller in their tents.

26

For they persecute him whom *thou* hast smitten, and they talk for the sorrow of those whom thou hast wounded.

27

Add iniquity unto their iniquity, and let them not come into thy righteousness.

28

Let them be blotted out of the book of life, and not be written with the righteous.

29

But I am afflicted and sorrowful: let thy salvation, O God, set me secure on high.

30

I will praise the name of God with a song, and will magnify him with thanksgiving;

31

And it shall please Jehovah more than an ox, -- a bullock with horns and cloven hoofs.

32

The meek shall see it, they shall be glad; ye that seek God, your heart shall live.

33

For Jehovah heareth the needy, and despiseth not his prisoners.

34

Let heavens and earth praise him; the seas, and everything that moveth therein.

35

For God will save Zion, and will build the cities of Judah; and they shall dwell there, and possess it:

36

And the seed of his servants shall inherit it, and they that love his name shall dwell therein.

Psalms 70

1

{To the chief Musician. [A Psalm] of David: to bring to remembrance.} Make haste, O God, to deliver me; Jehovah, [hasten] to my help.

2

Let them be ashamed and brought to confusion that seek after my soul; let them be turned backward and confounded that take pleasure in mine adversity;

3

Let them turn back because of their shame that say, Aha! Aha!

4

Let all those that seek thee be glad and rejoice in thee, and let such as love thy salvation say continually, Let God be magnified!

5

But I am afflicted and needy: make haste unto me, O God. Thou art my help and my deliverer: O Jehovah, make no delay.

Psalms 71

1

In thee, Jehovah, do I trust: let me never be ashamed.

2

Deliver me in thy righteousness, and rescue me; incline thine ear unto me, and save me.

3

Be to me a rock of habitation, whereunto I may continually resort: thou hast given commandment to save me; for thou art my rock and my fortress.

4

My God, rescue me out of the hand of the wicked, out of the hand of the unrighteous and cruel man.

5

For thou art my hope, O Lord Jehovah, my confidence from my youth.

6

On thee have I been stayed from the womb; from the bowels of my mother thou didst draw me forth: my praise shall be continually of thee.

7

I have been as a wonder unto many; but thou art my strong refuge.

8

My mouth shall be filled with thy praise, with thy glory, all the day.

9

Cast me not off in the time of old age; forsake me not when my strength faileth.

10

For mine enemies speak against me, and they that watch for my soul consult together,

11

Saying, God hath forsaken him; pursue and seize him, for there is none to deliver.

12

O God, be not far from me; my God, hasten to my help.

13

Let them be ashamed, let them be consumed, that are adversaries to my soul; let them be covered with reproach and dishonour that seek my hurt.

14

But as for me, I will hope continually, and will praise thee yet more and more.

15

My mouth shall declare thy righteousness, [and] thy salvation all the day: for I know not the numbers [thereof].

16

I will go in the might of the Lord Jehovah; I will recall thy righteousness, thine alone.

17

O God, thou hast taught me from my youth, and hitherto have I proclaimed thy marvellous works:

18

Now also, when I am old and greyheaded, O God, forsake me not, until I have proclaimed thine arm unto [this] generation, thy might to every one that is to come.

19

And thy righteousness, O God, reacheth on high, thou who hast done great things: O God, who is like unto thee?

20

Thou, who hast shewn us many and sore troubles, wilt revive us again, and wilt bring us up again from the depths of the earth;

21

Thou wilt increase my greatness, and comfort me on every side.

22

I will also praise thee with the psaltery, even thy truth, my God; unto thee will I sing psalms with the harp, thou holy One of Israel.

23

My lips shall exult when I sing psalms unto thee; and my soul, which thou hast redeemed.

24

My tongue also shall talk of thy righteousness all the day; for they shall be ashamed, for they shall be brought to confusion, that seek my hurt.
