Psalms 142

GW

NIV

1 Loudly, I cry to the LORD. Loudly, I plead with the LORD for mercy.
1 I cry aloud to the LORD; I lift up my voice to the LORD for mercy.
2 I pour out my complaints in his presence and tell him my troubles.
2 I pour out before him my complaint; before him I tell my trouble.
3 When I begin to lose hope, you [already] know what I am experiencing. [My enemies] have hidden a trap for me on the path where I walk.
3 When my spirit grows faint within me, it is you who watch over my way. In the path where I walk people have hidden a snare for me.
4 Look to my right and see that no one notices me. Escape is impossible for me. No one cares about me.
4 Look and see, there is no one at my right hand; no one is concerned for me. I have no refuge; no one cares for my life.
5 I call out to you, O LORD. I say, "You are my refuge, my own inheritance in this world of the living."
5 I cry to you, LORD; I say, “You are my refuge, my portion in the land of the living.”
6 Pay attention to my cry for help because I am very weak. Rescue me from those who pursue me because they are too strong for me.
6 Listen to my cry, for I am in desperate need; rescue me from those who pursue me, for they are too strong for me.
7 Release my soul from prison so that I may give thanks to your name. Righteous people will surround me because you are good to me.
7 Set me free from my prison, that I may praise your name. Then the righteous will gather about me because of your goodness to me.
