Psalm 69 :: Brenton's English Septuagint (BES)

Psa 69:1

Psa 69:1(LXX 68:1) For the end, a Psalm of David, for [fn]alternate strains. (68:2) Save me, O God; for the waters have come in to my soul.

Psa 69:2

Psa 69:2(LXX 68:3) I am stuck fast in deep mire, and there is no standing: I am come in to the depths of the sea, and a storm has overwhelmed me.

Psa 69:3

Psa 69:3(LXX 68:4) I am weary of crying, my throat has become hoarse; mine eyes have failed by my waiting on my God.

Psa 69:4

Psa 69:4(LXX 68:5) They that hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of my head: my enemies that persecute me unrighteously are strengthened: then I [fn]restored that which I took not away.

Psa 69:5

Psa 69:5(LXX 68:6) O God, thou knowest my foolishness; and my transgressions are not hidden from thee.

Psa 69:6

Psa 69:6(LXX 68:7) Let not them that wait on thee, O Lord of hosts, be ashamed on my account: let not them that seek thee, be ashamed on my account, O God of Israel.

Psa 69:7

Psa 69:7(LXX 68:8) For I have suffered reproach for thy sake; shame has covered my face.

Psa 69:8

Psa 69:8(LXX 68:9) I became strange to my brethren, and a stranger to my mother's children.

Psa 69:9

Psa 69:9(LXX 68:10) [fn] For the zeal of thine house has eaten me up; and the reproaches of them that reproached thee are fallen upon me.

Psa 69:10

Psa 69:10(LXX 68:11) And I bowed down my soul with fasting, and that was made my reproach.

Psa 69:11

Psa 69:11(LXX 68:12) And I put on sackcloth for my covering; and I became a proverb to them.

Psa 69:12

Psa 69:12(LXX 68:13) They that sit in the gate talked against me, and they that drank wine sang against me.

Psa 69:13

Psa 69:13(LXX 68:14) But I will cry to thee, O Lord, in my prayer; O God, it is a propitious time: in the multitude of thy mercy hear me, in the truth of thy salvation.

Psa 69:14

Psa 69:14(LXX 68:15) Save me from the mire, that I stick not in it: let me be delivered from them that hate me, and from the deep waters.

Psa 69:15

Psa 69:15(LXX 68:16) Let not the waterflood drown me, nor let the deep swallow me up; neither let the well shut its mouth upon me.

Psa 69:16

Psa 69:16(LXX 68:17) Hear me, O Lord; for thy mercy is good: according to the multitude of thy compassions look upon me.

Psa 69:17

Psa 69:17(LXX 68:18) And turn not away thy face from thy [fn]servant; for I am afflicted: hear me speedily.

Psa 69:18

Psa 69:18(LXX 68:19) Draw nigh to my soul and redeem it: deliver me because of mine enemies.

Psa 69:19

Psa 69:19(LXX 68:20) For thou knowest my reproach, and my shame, and my confusion; all that afflict me are before thee.

Psa 69:20

Psa 69:20(LXX 68:21) My soul has waited for reproach and misery; and I waited for one to grieve with me, but there was none; and for one to comfort me, but I found none.

Psa 69:21

Psa 69:21(LXX 68:22) They gave me also gall for my food, and made me drink vinegar for my thirst.

Psa 69:22

Psa 69:22(LXX 68:23) [fn] Let their table before them be for a snare, and for a recompence, and for a stumbling-block.

Psa 69:23

Psa 69:23(LXX 68:24) Let their eyes be darkened that they should not see; and bow down their back continually.

Psa 69:24

Psa 69:24(LXX 68:25) Pour out thy wrath upon them, and let the fury of thine anger take hold on them.

Psa 69:25

Psa 69:25(LXX 68:26) [fn] Let their habitation be made desolate; and let there be no inhabitant in their tents:

Psa 69:26

Psa 69:26(LXX 68:27) because they persecuted him whom thou hast smitten; and they have added to the grief of my wounds.

Psa 69:27

Psa 69:27(LXX 68:28) Add iniquity to their iniquity; and let them not come into thy righteousness.

Psa 69:28

Psa 69:28(LXX 68:29) Let them be blotted out of the book of the living, and let them not be written with the righteous.

Psa 69:29

Psa 69:29(LXX 68:30) I am poor and sorrowful; but the salvation of thy countenance has helped me.

Psa 69:30

Psa 69:30(LXX 68:31) I will praise the name of my God with a song, I will magnify him with praise;

Psa 69:31

Psa 69:31(LXX 68:32) and this shall please God more than a young calf having horns and hoofs.

Psa 69:32

Psa 69:32(LXX 68:33) Let the poor see and rejoice; seek the Lord diligently, and ye shall live.

Psa 69:33

Psa 69:33(LXX 68:34) For the Lord hears the poor, and does not set at nought his fettered ones.

Psa 69:34

Psa 69:34(LXX 68:35) Let the heavens and the earth praise him, the sea, and all things moving in them.

Psa 69:35

Psa 69:35(LXX 68:36) For God will save Sion, and the cities of Judea shall be built; and men shall dwell there, and inherit it.

Psa 69:36

Psa 69:36(LXX 68:37) And the seed of his servants shall possess it, and they that love his name shall dwell therein.
