Contextual Overview

1 Saue me O Lorde: for waters haue entred in vnto my soule. 2 I am ouer the head in deepe myre where I feele no grounde: I plunge in deepe waters where the streame ouerwhelmeth me. 3 I am weery of crying, my throte is drye: my syght fayleth me through the long attendaunce that I haue geuen vpon my Lorde. 4 They that hate me without a cause are mo then the heeres of my head: they that are myne enemies and woulde destroy me giltlesse are mightie, I payde them the thynges that I neuer toke. 5 God thou knowest my folly: and my faultes are not hyd from thee. 6 Let not them that trust in thee O Lorde God of hoastes, be for my cause ashamed: let not those that seke thee, be through me confounded O Lorde of Israel. 7 For thy sake haue I suffered reprofe, shame hath couered my face: 8 I am become a straunger vnto my brethre, euen an aliaunt vnto my mothers children. 9 For the zeale of thine house hath euen eaten me: and the rebukes of them that rebuked thee, are fallen vpon me. 10 And I wept [chastenyng] my soule with fastyng: and that was turned to my reproofe.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

I sink in deep mire, where [there is] no standing,.... Which signifies not despair of mind, but difficult and distressed circumstances; the Messiah now bearing the filthy sins of his people, and the punishment of them, and so was got into the horrible pit, the mire and clay; :-;

I am come into deep waters, where the floods overflow me: as afflictions are often compared to waters in Scripture, Christ's sorrows and sufferings are very aptly signified by deep waters and overflowing floods; and therefore rightly called a baptism, as by himself,

Luke 12:50, when he was as one immersed in and overwhelmed with water.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

I sink in deep mire - Margin, as in Hebrew, “the mire of the depth.” This would denote either mire which was itself so deep that one could not extricate himself from it; or, mire found in a deep place, as at the bottom of a pit. Compare the notes at Psalms 40:2. An illustration of this might be drawn from the case of Joseph, cast by his brethren into a deep pit Genesis 37:24; or from the case of Jeremiah, thrown into a deep dungeon: “And they let down Jeremiah with cords; and in the dungeon there was no water, but mire: so Jeremiah sunk in the mire,” Jeremiah 38:6.

Where there is no standing - No solid ground; nothing for the foot to rest on. “I am come into deep waters.” Margin, as in Hebrew, “depth of waters.” That is, waters where he could not touch the bottom - an image of some peril that threatened his life.

Where the floods overflow me - The waters. They break over my head. My life is “in danger.”
