  Speaker 1: Psalm 69 For the cheap musician to the tune of
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: lilies by David. Save me, God, for the waters have
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: come up to my neck. I sink in deep mire
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: where there is no foothold. I have come into deep
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: waters where the floods overflow me. I am weary with
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: my crying. My throat is dry. My eyes fail looking
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: for my God. Those who hate me without a cause
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: are more than the hairs of my head. Those who
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: want to cut me off, being my enemies wrongfully, are mighty.
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: I have to restore what I didn't take away. God,
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: you know my foolishness. My sins aren't hidden from you.
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: Don't let those who wait for you be put to
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: shame through me, Lord Yahweh of hosts. Don't let those
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: who seek you be bought to dishonor through me, God
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: of Israel. BECAUSE, FOR YOUR SAKE, I HAVE BORN REPROACH.
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: SHAME HAS COVERED MY FACE. I HAVE BECOME A STRANGER
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: TO MY BROTHERS, AN ALIEN TO MY MOTHER'S CHILDREN. FOR
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: THE ZEAL OF YOUR HOUSE CONSUMES ME. THE REPROACHES OF
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: THOSE WHO REPROACH YOU HAVE FALLEN ON ME. WHEN I
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: WEPT AND I FASTED, THAT WAS TO MY REPROACH. WHEN
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: I MADE SACKCLOTH MY CLOTHING, I BECAME A BYWORD TO THEM.
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: THOSE WHO SIT IN THE GATE TALK ABOUT ME. I
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: AM THE SONG OF THE DRUNKARDS. But as for me,
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: my prayer is to you, Yahweh, in an acceptable time. God,
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: in the abundance of your lovingkindness, answer me in the
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: truth of your salvation. Deliver me out of the mire,
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: and don't let me sink. Let me be delivered from
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: those who hate me, and out of the deep waters.
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: Don't let the floodwaters overwhelm me, neither let the deep
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: swallow me up. Don't let the pit shut its mouth
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: on me. Answer me, Yahweh, for your lovingkindness is good.
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: According to the multitude of your tender mercies, turn to me.
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: Don't hide your face from your servant, for I am
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: in distress. Answer me speedily. Draw near to my soul
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: and redeem it. Ransom me because of my enemies. You
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: know my reproach, my shame, and my dishonor. My adversaries
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: are all before you. Reproach has broken my heart, and
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: I am full of heaviness. I looked for some to
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: take pity, but there was none, for comforters, but I
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: found none. They also gave me gall for my food.
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: In my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink. Let
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: their table before them become a snare. May it become
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: a retribution and a trap. Let their eyes be darkened
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: so that they can't see. Let their backs be continually bent.
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: Pour out your indignation on them. Let the fierceness of
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: your anger overtake them. Let their habitation be desolate. Let
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: no one dwell in their tents. For they persecute him
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: whom you have wounded. They tell of the sorrow of
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: those whom you have hurt. CHARGE THEM WITH CRIME UPON CRIME.
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: DON'T LET THEM COME INTO YOUR RIGHTEOUSNESS. LET THEM BE
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: BLOTTED OUT OF THE BOOK OF LIFE, AND NOT BE
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: WRITTEN WITH THE RIGHTEOUS. BUT I AM IN PAIN AND DISTRESS.
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: LET YOUR SALVATION, GOD, PROTECT ME. I will praise the
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: name of God with a song, and will magnify him
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: with thanksgiving. It will please Yahweh better than an ox
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: or a bull that has horns and hoofs. The humble
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: have seen it and are glad. You who seek after God,
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: let your heart live, for Yahweh hears the needy and
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: doesn't despise his captive people. Let heaven and earth praise him,
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: the seas and everything that moves therein. For God will
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: save Zion and build the cities of Judah. They shall
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: settle there and own it. The children also of his
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: servants shall inherit it. Those who love his name shall
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: dwell therein.
