Psalm 69:8-11
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
8 I have become a stranger to my kindred,
an alien to my mother’s children.(A)
9 It is zeal for your house that has consumed me;
the insults of those who insult you have fallen on me.(B)
10 When I humbled my soul with fasting,[a]
they insulted me for doing so.(C)
11 When I made sackcloth my clothing,
I became a byword to them.(D)

and the drunkards make songs about me.(A)

At an acceptable time, O God,
in the abundance of your steadfast love, answer me.
With your faithful help(B) 14 rescue me
from sinking in the mire;
let me be delivered from my enemies
and from the deep waters.(C)
15 Do not let the flood sweep over me
or the deep swallow me up
or the Pit close its mouth over me.(D)
16 Answer me, O Lord, for your steadfast love is good;
according to your abundant mercy, turn to me.(E)
17 Do not hide your face from your servant,
for I am in distress—make haste to answer me.(F)

deliver me from those who hate me,
from the deep waters.(E)

or the depths swallow me up(G)
or the pit close its mouth over me.(H)

so that I am in despair.
I looked for pity, but there was none;
and for comforters, but I found none.(B)
