1. Save me, O God!For the waters have come up to my neck.
2. I sink in deep mire,Where there is no standing;I have come into deep waters,Where the floods overflow me.
3. I am weary with my crying;My throat is dry;My eyes fail while I wait for my God.
4. Those who hate me without a causeAre more than the hairs of my head;They are mighty who would destroy me,Being my enemies wrongfully;Though I have stolen nothing,I still must restore it.
