Psalm 69:15 in context

The verses around it, from Psalm 69.

11 I made sackcloth my clothing, and I was sport to them.

12 Those who sit at the gate mock me, and I am the song of drunkards.

13 But my prayer to You, O LORD, is for a time of favor. In Your abundant loving devotion, O God, answer me with Your sure salvation.

14 Rescue me from the mire and do not let me sink; deliver me from my foes and out of the deep waters.

15 Do not let the floods engulf me or the depths swallow me up; let not the Pit close its mouth over me.

16 Answer me, O LORD, for Your loving devotion is good; turn to me in keeping with Your great compassion.

17 Hide not Your face from Your servant, for I am in distress. Answer me quickly!

18 Draw near to my soul and redeem me; ransom me because of my foes.

19 You know my reproach, my shame and disgrace. All my adversaries are before You.
