To the chief Musician upon Shoshannim
A psalm of David
Save me, O God:
For the waters are come in unto my soul
2. I sink in deep mire, where there is no standing:
I am come into deep waters,
Where flood overflow me.
3. I am weary of my crying: my throat is dried:
Mine eyes fall while I wait for my God
4. They that hate me without a cause
Are more than the hairs of mine head:
That would destroy me,
Being my enemies wrongfully, are might:
Then I restored that which I took away.
