Psalm 69 by David:
Save me, O God
He tells God how he is in danger
the waters have come up to my neck
sink in deep mire x2 without foothold
have come up into deep waters x2
the flood sweeps x2 over me
How he perceives of his conditions
am weary with my crying out
my throat is parched
my eyes grow dim
with waiting for my God
many people hate me without cause
mighty people would destroy me
dishonest or deceiving people attack me with lies
must now restore something which he did not steal
my folly YOU know
the wrongs I have done, are not hidden from YOU
Asking
God (taking care of his own people Israel)
God of hosts / Israel
O Lord
through "me"
Let people hope in / seek God , not to bee put to shame or are brought to dishonor
???
have borne the reproach because of God' sake
consequence: dishonor has covered "my face"
became a stranger or an alien to his brothers or relatives
reproaches fallen on me
became low
I wept and humbled my soul with fasting
I made sackcloth my clothing
I became a byword to them / a talk of others / a song by a drunkard
my prayer is to You, O Lord (get closer and interactions)
even David felt low because of others' talk or songs about him
recall God' the abundance of steadfast love and look for God's answers in His saving faithfulness
deliver me
from his enemies
from sinking in the mire / the deep waters
(mental & inner being?)
not let flood sweep over me
not let the deep swallow me up
not let the pit close its mouth over me
turn to me & answer me because God's steadfast love & abundant mercy is so good
make haste to answer me, not hide Your face to your servant (3rd person?)
reason: for I am in distress
draw near to my soul
redeem me
ransom me
even because of the presence of my enemies
YOU know my reproach, my shame and my dishonor
my foes are known to YOU
reproaches have broken my heart
I am in despair
I found none of comforters
they gave me poison for food; sour wine to drink for my thirsty
to his enemies
let their own table become a snare
let their eyes be darken and not able to see
make their lions tremble continously
pour out God's indignation upon them
let Your burning anger overtake them
let their camp be a desolation
let no one dwell in their tents
add punishment upon punishment to them
no acquittal from YOU
let them be blotted out of the book of living
let them not be enrolled among the righteous
future
I will
praise the name of God with a song
magnify him with thanksgiving
please the Lord
others who see it, will
the humble will be glad
let the heart of hose who seek God, revive
the Lord hears the needy
not despise his own people who are prisoners
heaven &earth praise Him
God will
save Zion
build up the cities of Judah
People will
dwell there & possess it
the offspring of his servants will inherit it
those who love His name will dwell in it
