Psalm 69:15-17

International Standard Version

¹⁵Let neither the floodwaters overwhelm me
nor let the deep swallow me up,
nor the mouth of the well close over me.

¹⁶Answer me, Lord, for your gracious love is good;
    Turn to me in keeping with your great compassion,
¹⁷and^[a] do not ignore your servant,
    because I am in distress.
        Hurry to answer me!
