To the choirmaster on Shoshannim of David. Save me O God for they have come waters to [the] neck.

2 I sink in deep mire, where there is no foothold. I have come into deep waters, where the floods overflow me.

I have sunk - in mire of depth and there not [is] a foothold I have come in depths of water and a flood it has overflowed me.

3 I am weary with my crying. My throat is dry. My eyes fail looking for my God.

4 Those who hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of my head. Those who want to cut me off, being my enemies wrongfully, are mighty. I have to restore what I did not take away.

They are many - more than [the] hairs of head my [those who] hate me without cause they are numerous [those who] destroy me enemies my falsehood [that] which not I stole then I will return.

5 God, you know my foolishness. My sins are not hidden from you.

May not they be ashamed in me - [those who] wait for you O Lord Yahweh of hosts may not they be humiliated in me [those who] seek you O God of Israel.

7 Because for your sake, I have borne reproach. Shame has covered my face.

For on you I have borne reproach it has covered ignominy face my.

8 I have become a stranger to my brothers, an alien to my mother’s children.

Estranged I have become to brothers my and a foreigner to [the] children of mother my.

12 Those who sit in the gate talk about me. I am the song of the drunkards.

They speak in me [those who] sit of [the] gate and taunt songs of drinkers of strong drink.

13 But as for me, my prayer is to you, LORD, in an acceptable time. God, in the abundance of your loving kindness, answer me in the truth of your salvation.

And I prayer my [is] to you - O Yahweh a time of favor O God in [the] greatness of covenant loyalty your answer me in [the] faithfulness of salvation your.

15 Do not let the flood waters overwhelm me, neither let the deep swallow me up. Do not let the pit shut its mouth on me.

May not it overflow me - a flood of water and may not it swallow up me [the] deep and may not it close over me [the] pit mouth its.

You you know reproach my and shame my and ignominy my [are] before you all opposers my.

Reproach - it has broken heart my and I have become sick! and I waited to show sympathy and there not and for comforters and not I found [them].

21 They also gave me poison for my food. In my thirst, they gave me vinegar to drink.

22 Let their table before them become a snare. May it become a retribution and a trap.

May it become table their before them a trap and for allies a snare.

23 Let their eyes be darkened, so that they cannot see. Let their backs be continually bent.

May they grow dim eyes their from seeing and loins their continually make to shake.

24 Pour out your indignation on them. Let the fierceness of your anger overtake them.

Pour out on them indignation your and [the] burning of anger your may it overtake them.

25 Let their habitation be desolate. Let no one dwell in their tents.

May it be encampment their made desolate in tents their may not anyone be dwelling.

26 For they persecute him whom you have wounded. They tell of the sorrow of those whom you have hurt.

For you [those] whom you struck they have harassed and concerning [the] pain of fatally wounded [ones] your they have recounted.

27 Charge them with crime upon crime. Do not let them come into your righteousness.

Put! iniquity to iniquity their and may not they come in righteousness your.

28 Let them be blotted out of the book of life, and not be written with the righteous.

May they be wiped out from [the] scroll of life and with righteous [people] may not they be written down.

31 It will please the LORD better than an ox, or a bull that has horns and hoofs.

So it may be good to Yahweh more than an ox a young bull having horns having hooves.

32 The humble have seen it, and are glad. You who seek after God, let your heart live.

They will see humble [people] they will rejoice O [you who] seek God and may it live heart your.
