Psalm 69
from Carefully Examining the Text Hosted by Tommy Peeler
This is a psalm of individual lament. 69:1-5 David describes his destress. It is as if he is drowning in deep waters and he cannot find his footing. 69:6-12 His suffering has come upon him specifically because of his love for God and God's house. 69:13-19 He appeals to God to rescue him because of God's lovingkindness, truth or faithfulness, and His compassion. 69:20-21 There is no one to comfort him in his distress. 69:22-28 He asks God to judge his adversaries in ways they sought to judge others 69:29-36 Praise to God As is so often the case, pouring out his problems in distress have led to God's deliverance.
