SAVE me, O God; for the waters are come in unto my soul.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015504">2</a>. I sink in deep mire, where there is no standing: I am come into deep waters, where the floods overflow me.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015505">3</a>. I am weary of my crying: my throat is dried: mine eyes fail while I wait for my God.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015506">4</a>. They that hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of mine head: they that would destroy me, being mine enemies wrongfully, are mighty: then I restored that which I took not away.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015507">5</a>. O God, thou knowest my foolishness; and my sins are not hid from thee.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015508">6</a>. Let not them that wait on thee, O Lord GOD of hosts, be ashamed for my sake: let not those that seek thee be confounded for my sake, O God of Israel.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015509">7</a>. Because for thy sake I have borne reproach; shame hath covered my face.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015510">8</a>. I am become a stranger unto my brethren, and an alien unto my mother's children.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015511">9</a>. For the zeal of thine house hath eaten me up; and the reproaches of them that reproached thee are fallen upon me.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015512">10</a>. When I wept, and chastened my soul with fasting, that was to my reproach.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015513">11</a>. I made sackcloth also my garment; and I become a proverb to them.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015514">12</a>. They that sit in the gate speak against me; and I was the song of the drunkards.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015515">13</a>. But as for me, my prayer is unto thee, O LORD, in an acceptable time: O God, in the multitude of thy mercy hear me, in the truth of thy salvation.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015516">14</a>. Deliver me out of the mire, and let me not sink: let me be delivered from them that hate me, and out of the deep waters.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015517">15</a>. Let not the waterflood overflow me, neither let the deep swallow me up, and let not the pit shut her mouth upon me.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015518">16</a>. Hear me, O LORD; for thy lovingkindness is good: turn unto me according to the multitude of thy tender mercies.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015519">17</a>. And hide not thy face from thy servant; for I am in trouble: hear me speedily.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015520">18</a>. Draw nigh unto my soul, and redeem it: deliver me because of mine enemies.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015521">19</a>. Thou hast known my reproach, and my shame, and my dishonour: mine adversaries are all before thee.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015522">20</a>. Reproach hath broken my heart; and I am full of heaviness: and I looked for some to take pity, but there was none; and for comforters, but I found none.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015523">21</a>. They gave me also gall for my meat; and in my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015524">22</a>. Let their table become a snare before them: and that which should have been for their welfare, let it become a trap.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015525">23</a>. Let their eyes be darkened, that they see not; and make their loins continually to shake.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015526">24</a>. Pour out thine indignation upon them, and let thy wrathful anger take hold of them.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015527">25</a>. Let their habitation be desolate; and let none dwell in their tents.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015528">26</a>. For they persecute him whom thou hast smitten; and they talk to the grief of those whom thou hast wounded.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015529">27</a>. Add iniquity unto their iniquity: and let them not come into thy righteousness.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015530">28</a>. Let them be blotted out of the book of the living, and not be written with the righteous.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015531">29</a>. But I am poor and sorrowful: let thy salvation, O God, set me up on high.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015532">30</a>. I will praise the name of God with a song, and will magnify him with thanksgiving.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015533">31</a>. This also shall please the LORD better than an ox or bullock that hath horns and hoofs.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015534">32</a>. The humble shall see this, and be glad: and your heart shall live that seek God.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015535">33</a>. For the LORD heareth the poor, and despiseth not his prisoners.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015536">34</a>. Let the heaven and earth praise him, the seas, and everything that moveth therein.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015537">35</a>. For God will save Zion, and will build the cities of Judah: that they may dwell there, and have it in possession.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015538">36</a>. The seed also of his servants shall inherit it: and they that love his name shall dwell therein.</li>
