Psalms 69:15

Let not the waterflood overflow me, neither let the deep swallow me up, and let not the pit shut her mouth upon me.
13

But as for me, my prayer is unto thee, O Lord, in an acceptable time: O God, in the multitude of thy mercy hear me, in the truth of thy salvation.

14

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.

15

Let not the waterflood overflow me, neither let the deep swallow me up, and let not the pit shut her mouth upon me.

16

Hear me, O Lord; for thy lovingkindness is good: turn unto me according to the multitude of thy tender mercies.

17

And hide not thy face from thy servant; for I am in trouble: hear me speedily.

Sheol / The Grave

The verse uses metaphorical language of drowning and being swallowed by a pit, which could refer to overwhelming distress or danger in life rather than literally the state or destination of the dead. The "pit" here could be understood as a figurative trap or a deep, inescapable predicament, not necessarily the grave itself.
