Psalm 69:12-14

Common English Bible

¹² Those who sit at the city gate muttered things about me;
    drunkards made up rude songs.

¹³ But me? My prayer reaches you, Lord,
    at just the right time.
God, in your great and faithful love,
    answer me with your certain salvation!
¹⁴ Save me from the mud!
    Don’t let me drown!
    Let me be saved from those who hate me
    and from these watery depths!
