¹ Save me, O God; For the waters are come in unto my soul.

¹⁴ Deliver me out of the mire, and let me not sink: Let me be delivered from them that hate me, and out of the deep waters.

¹⁵ Let not the waterflood overwhelm me, Neither let the deep shallow me up; And let not the pit shut its mouth upon me.

² When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned, neither shall the flame kindle upon thee.

¹ My heart overfloweth with a goodly matter; I speak the things which I have made touching the king: My tongue is the pen of a ready writer.

⁷ Deep calleth unto deep at the noise of thy waterfalls: All thy waves and thy billows are gone over me.

¹⁵ And he saith unto me, The waters which thou sawest, where the harlot sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues.

¹⁵ And the serpent cast out of his mouth after the woman water as a river, that he might cause her to be carried away by the stream.

¹⁶ And the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened her mouth and swallowed up the river which the dragon cast out of his mouth.

³ For thou didst cast me into the depth, in the heart of the seas, And the flood was round about me; All thy waves and thy billows passed over me.

⁴ And I said, I am cast out from before thine eyes; Yet I will look again toward thy holy temple.

⁵ The waters compassed me about, even to the soul; The deep was round about me; The weeds were wrapped about my head.

⁵⁴ Waters flowed over my head; I said, I am cut off.

¹⁷ And I will make justice the line, and righteousness the plummet; and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the hiding-place.

¹ Give ear, O Shepherd of Israel, Thou that leadest Joseph like a flock; Thou that sittest `above' the cherubim, shine forth.

² I sink in deep mire, where there is no standing: I am come into deep waters, where the floods overflow me.

¹ O God thou hast cast us off, thou hast broken us down; Thou hast been angry; oh restore us again.

⁶ For this let every one that is godly pray unto thee in a time when thou mayest be found: Surely when the great waters overflow they shall not reach unto him.

⁴ The cords of death compassed me, And the floods of ungodliness made me afraid.

¹¹ Or darkness, so that thou canst not see, And abundance of waters cover thee.
