Vindicator

Save me, O God, for the water have come up to my neck
I sink in the miry depths, where there is no foothold
I have come into the deep waters; the floods engulf me
Fear and trembling have beset me, horror has overwhelmed me
I am worn out calling for help, my throat is parched
My heart is in anguish with me; the terrors of death assail me
Many are my enemies without cause; those who seek to destroy me
They sharpen their tongues like swords, and aim their words like deadly arrows
When they draw the bow, let their arrows be blunted
O Lord, how many are my foes!
But You are a shield around me, O Lord; You bestow glory on me
I cry aloud, and He answers me
I will not fear the tens of thousands drawn up against me
