Psalms 69:15

Don’t let the current overpower me! Don’t let the deep swallow me up! Don’t let the pit ¹  devour me! ² 

Do not let the floodwaters engulf me or the depths swallow me up or the pit close its mouth over me.

May the flood of water not overflow me Nor the deep swallow me up, Nor the pit shut its mouth on me.

Don’t let the floods overwhelm me, or the deep waters swallow me, or the pit of death devour me.

Don't let the swamp be my grave, the Black Hole Swallow me, its jaws clenched around me.

Let me not be covered by the flowing waters; let not the deep waters go over my head, and let me not be shut up in the underworld.

Do not let the flood sweep over me, or the deep swallow me up, or the Pit close its mouth over me.

Let not the floodwater overflow me, Nor let the deep swallow me up; And let not the pit shut its mouth on me.

Don’t let the current overpower me! Don’t let the deep swallow me up! Don’t let the pit ¹  devour me! ² 

¹ tn Heb “well,” which here symbolizes the place of the dead (cf. Ps 55:23).

² tn Heb “do not let the well close its mouth upon me.”
