Deliver me out of the mire, and let me not sink: let me be delivered from them that hate me, and out of the deep waters.
Study Helps
Interpretation
Whatever deep waters of affliction or temptation we sink into, whatever floods of trouble or ungodly men seem ready to overwhelm us, let us persevere in prayer to our Lord to save us. The tokens of God's favour to us are enough to keep our spirits from sinking in the deepest outward troubles.
