Reach down from heaven and rescue me;
rescue me from deep waters,
from the power of my enemies.
Their mouths are full of lies;
they swear to tell the truth, but they lie instead.
Reach down from heaven and rescue me; rescue me from deep waters, from the power of my enemies.

Rescue me from the mud;

or the deep waters swallow me,
or the pit of death devour me. (see all Psalm 69)
