A prayer to be delivered out of the deep waters

깊은 물에서 건져 달라는 기도

Psalm 69:1–21: a prayer to be delivered out of the deep waters and the mire. The speaker (“I”) says to God, “Save me, God, for the waters have come up to my neck! I sink in deep mire, where there is no foothold. I have come into deep waters, where the floods overflow me. I am weary with my crying. My throat is dry. My eyes fail looking for my God. Those who hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of my head. Those who want to cut me off, being my enemies wrongfully, are mighty. I have to restore what I didn’t take away. God, you know my foolishness. My sins aren’t hidden from you. Don’t let those who wait for you be shamed through me, Lord GOD of Armies. Don’t let those who seek you be brought to dishonor through me, God of Israel. Because for your sake, I have borne reproach. Shame has covered my face. I have become a stranger to my brothers, an alien to my mother’s children. For the zeal of your house consumes me. The reproaches of those who reproach you have fallen on me. When I wept and I fasted, that was to my reproach. When I made sackcloth my clothing, I became a byword to them. Those who sit in the gate talk about me. I am the song of the drunkards. But as for me, my prayer is to you, LORD, in an acceptable time. God, in the abundance of your loving kindness, answer me in the truth of your salvation. Deliver me out of the mire, and don’t let me sink. Let me be delivered from those who hate me, and out of the deep waters. Don’t let the flood waters overwhelm me, neither let the deep swallow me up. Don’t let the pit shut its mouth on me. Answer me, LORD, for your loving kindness is good. According to the multitude of your tender mercies, turn to me. Don’t hide your face from your servant, for I am in distress. Answer me speedily! Draw near to my soul and redeem it. Ransom me because of my enemies. You know my reproach, my shame, and my dishonor. My adversaries are all before you. Reproach has broken my heart, and I am full of heaviness. I looked for some to take pity, but there was none; for comforters, but I found none. They also gave me poison for my food. In my thirst, they gave me vinegar to drink.” The Korean Revised Version reads at 69:1 물들이 내 영혼까지 흘러 들어왔나이다, up to the soul, where WEB reads “the waters have come up to my neck”, and at 69:21 쓸개, gall, where WEB reads “poison”. WEB opens 69:1 with the title “For the Chief Musician. To the tune of ‘Lilies.’ By David.”; the Korean Revised Version text this collection holds has no title in 69:1.

    1For the Chief Musician. To the tune of “Lilies.” By David. Save me, God, for the waters have come up to my neck!

    2I sink in deep mire, where there is no foothold. I have come into deep waters, where the floods overflow me.

    3I am weary with my crying. My throat is dry. My eyes fail looking for my God.

    4Those who hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of my head. Those who want to cut me off, being my enemies wrongfully, are mighty. I have to restore what I didn’t take away.

    5God, you know my foolishness. My sins aren’t hidden from you.

    6Don’t let those who wait for you be shamed through me, Lord GOD of Armies. Don’t let those who seek you be brought to dishonor through me, God of Israel.

    7Because for your sake, I have borne reproach. Shame has covered my face.

    8I have become a stranger to my brothers, an alien to my mother’s children.

    9For the zeal of your house consumes me. The reproaches of those who reproach you have fallen on me.

    10When I wept and I fasted, that was to my reproach.

    11When I made sackcloth my clothing, I became a byword to them.

    12Those who sit in the gate talk about me. I am the song of the drunkards.

    13But as for me, my prayer is to you, LORD, in an acceptable time. God, in the abundance of your loving kindness, answer me in the truth of your salvation.

    14Deliver me out of the mire, and don’t let me sink. Let me be delivered from those who hate me, and out of the deep waters.

    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, LORD, 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.

    19You know my reproach, my shame, and my dishonor. My adversaries are all before you.

    20Reproach has broken my heart, and I am full of heaviness. I looked for some to take pity, but there was none; for comforters, but I found none.

    21They also gave me poison for my food. In my thirst, they gave me vinegar to drink.
