Psalm 69:2-4
Common English Bible
2 I have sunk into deep mud.
My feet can’t touch the bottom!
I have entered deep water;
the flood has swept me up.
3 I am tired of crying.
My throat is hoarse.
My eyes are exhausted with waiting for my God.
4 More numerous than the hairs on my head
are those who hate me for no reason.
My treacherous enemies,
those who would destroy me, are countless.
Must I now give back
what I didn’t steal in the first place?
Psalm 69:2-4
English Standard Version
2 I sink in deep (A)mire,
where there is no foothold;
I have come into deep waters,
and the flood (B)sweeps over me.
3 (C)I am weary with my crying out;
(D)my throat is parched.
(E)My eyes grow dim
with (F)waiting for my God.
4 (G)More in number than the hairs of my head
are (H)those who hate me (I)without cause;
mighty are those who would destroy me,
(J)those who attack me with lies.
What I did not steal
must I now restore?
