The following Oracle statement:

 DECLARE ID NUMBER;
 BEGIN
  UPDATE myusername.terrainMap 
  SET playerID = :playerID,tileLayout = :tileLayout 
  WHERE ID = :ID
 END;

Gives me the following error:

ORA-06550: line 6, column 15:
PL/SQL: ORA-00933: SQL command not properly ended
ORA-06550: line 3, column 19:
PL/SQL: SQL Statement ignored
ORA-06550: line 6, column 18:
PLS-00103: Encountered the symbol "end-of-file" when expecting one of the following:

   ( begin case declare end exception exit for goto if loop mod
   null pragma raise return select update while with
   <an identifier> <a double-quoted>

I am pretty much at a loss. This appears to be a rather simple statement. If it helps any, I had a similar statement that performed an INSERT which used to work, but today has been giving me the same message.
