Psalm 142

The Complete Jewish Bible CJB

1 A maskil of David, when he was in the cave. A prayer: With my voice I cry to ADONAI, with my voice I plead to ADONAI for mercy.

2 Before him I pour out my complaint, before him I tell my trouble.

3 When my spirit faints within me, you watch over my path. By the road that I am walking they have hidden a snare for me.

4 Look to my right, and see that no one recognizes me. I have no way of escape; nobody cares for me.

5 I cried out to you, ADONAI; I said, "You are my refuge, my portion in the land of the living."

6 Listen to my cry, for I have been brought very low. Rescue me from my persecutors, for they are too strong for me.

7 Lead me out of prison, so that I can give thanks to your name; in me the righteous will be crowning themselves, because you will have treated me generously.

King James Version KJV

1 I cried unto the LORD with my voice; with my voice unto the LORD did I make my supplication.

2 I poured out my complaint before him; I shewed before him my trouble.

3 When my spirit was overwhelmed within me, then thou knewest my path. In the way wherein I walked have they privily laid a snare for me.

4 I looked on my right hand, and beheld, but there was no man that would know me: refuge failed me; no man cared for my soul.

5 I cried unto thee, O LORD: I said, Thou art my refuge and my portion in the land of the living.

6 Attend unto my cry; for I am brought very low: deliver me from my persecutors; for they are stronger than I.

7 Bring my soul out of prison, that I may praise thy name: the righteous shall compass me about; for thou shalt deal bountifully with me.
