Psalm 69:1-3

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

¹ Save me, O God,
    for the waters have come up to my neck.
² I sink in deep mire,
    where there is no foothold;
I have come into deep waters,
    and the flood sweeps over me.
³ I am weary with my crying;
    my throat is parched.
My eyes grow dim
    with waiting for my God.
