Psalms 69:14

The Holy Bible, Berean Study Bible

Contextual Overview

¹³But my prayer to You, O LORD, is for a time of favor. In Your abundant loving devotion, O God, answer me with Your sure salvation. ¹⁴Rescue me from the mire and do not let me sink; deliver me from my foes and out of the deep waters.¹⁵Do not let the floods engulf me or the depths swallow me up; let not the Pit close its mouth over me. ¹⁶Answer me, O LORD, for Your loving devotion is good; turn to me in keeping with Your great compassion. ¹⁷Hide not Your face from Your servant, for I am in distress. Answer me quickly! ¹⁸Draw near to my soul and redeem me; ransom me because of my foes. ¹⁹You know my reproach, my shame and disgrace. All my adversaries are before You. ²⁰Insults have broken my heart, and I am in despair. I looked for sympathy, but there was none, for comforters, but I found no one. ²¹They poisoned my food with gall and gave me vinegar to quench my thirst.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Deliver me out of the mire, and let me not sink,.... In which he was sinking, Psalms 69:2; and accordingly he was delivered out of it,

Psalms 11:2; even out of all the mire of sin, the sins of his people that were upon him, from which he was justified when raised from the dead; and so will appear without sin, when he comes a second time:

let me be delivered from them that hate me, and out of the deep waters; these phrases design the same, even the enemies of Christ; such that hated him, compared to deep waters: these are the floods of the ungodly, and the many waters out of which he was drawn and delivered,

Psalms 18:4.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Deliver me out of the mire - Out of my troubles and calamities. See Psalms 69:1-2.

And let me not sink - As in, mire. Let me not be overwhelmed by my sorrows.

Let me be delivered from them that hate me - All my enemies. Let me be saved from their machinations and devices.

And out of the deep waters - See Psalms 69:1-2. From my troubles.
