mire, mud (noun describing deep mud or miry clay that entraps)
This noun appears only in the Psalms, both times describing the treacherous mire or mud from which the psalmist cries for deliverance. The word captures the imagery of being stuck in deep, clinging mud that threatens to swallow one whole—a powerful metaphor for despair and mortal danger. Both occurrences use similar phrasing about being drawn up from or sinking into the miry clay. The etymology remains uncertain, though some scholars have proposed Persian or other origins.
