nasb@Psalms:69:14 @Deliver me from the mire and do not let me sink; May I be delivered from my foes and from the deep waters.

nasb@Psalms:69:15 @May the flood of water not overflow me Nor the deep swallow me up, Nor the pit shut its mouth on me.

nasb@Psalms:69:16 @Answer me, O LORD, for Your lovingkindness is good; According to the greatness of Your compassion, turn to me,

nasb@Psalms:69:17 @And do not hide Your face from Your servant, For I am in distress; answer me quickly.
