Psalm 142:1-6

Listen to Psalm 142:1-6
1 Maschil di Davide; orazione ch’egli fece quando era nella spelonca. IO grido colla mia voce al Signore; Io supplico al Signore colla mia voce.
2 Io spando la mia orazione davanti a lui; Io racconto davanti a lui la mia tribolazione,
3 Mentre lo spirito mio spasima in me. Or tu, Signore, conosci il mio sentiero. Essi mi hanno nascosto un laccio In su la via, per la quale ho da camminare.
4 Io riguardo a destra, e miro; E non vi è alcuno che mi riconosca; Ogni rifugio è perduto per me; Non vi è alcuno che abbia cura dell’anima mia.
5 O Signore, io grido a te; Io dico: Tu sei il mio ricetto, La mia parte nella terra de’ viventi.
6 Attendi al mio gridare; Perciocchè io son ridotto in molto misero stato; Riscuotimi da quelli che mi perseguitano; Perciocchè son più possenti di me.

Psalm 142:1-6 Meaning and Commentary

Maschil of David; A Prayer when he was in the cave. Of the word "maschil," See Gill on "Ps 32:1," title. This psalm is called a prayer, as some others are, the ninetieth and hundred second psalms: and was composed by David when either in the cave of Adullam, 1 Samuel 22:1; or rather in the cave at Engedi, where he cut off Saul's skirt, 1 Samuel 24:3; as Jarchi and Kimchi think. The psalm represents the troubles of David, and of the Messiah his antitype, and is applicable to the church of God, or to any particular soul when in distress.
