Psalm 69:16-21

Lexham English Bible

¹⁶ Answer me, O Yahweh, because your loyal love is good;
according to your abundant mercies, turn to me,
¹⁷ and do not hide your face from your servant.
Because I am in trouble, answer me quickly.
¹⁸ Draw near to my soul; redeem it.
Because of my enemies, ransom me.
¹⁹ You know my reproach, my shame and my disgrace.
Fully known^[a] to you are all my adversaries.
²⁰ Reproach has broken my heart and I am sick.
And I hoped for sympathy, but there was none,
and for comforters, but I found none.
²¹ They also gave me gall for food,^[b]
and for my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink.
