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.

New King James Version NKJV

1 A Contemplation of David. A Prayer when he was in the cave. I cry out to the Lord with my voice; With my voice to the Lord I make my supplication.

2 I pour out my complaint before Him; I declare before Him my trouble.

3 When my spirit was overwhelmed within me, Then You knew my path. In the way in which I walk They have secretly set a snare for me.

4 Look on my right hand and see, For there is no one who acknowledges me; Refuge has failed me; No one cares for my soul.

5 I cried out to You, O Lord: I said, "You are my refuge, My portion in the land of the living.

6 Attend to 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 Your name; The righteous shall surround me, For You shall deal bountifully with me."
