Psalm 142

1 I cried to the Lord with my voice; with my voice I made supplication to the Lord.

1 I cry aloud to the LORD; I lift up my voice to the LORD for mercy.

2 I will pour out before him my supplication: I will declare before him mine affliction.

2 I pour out before him my complaint; before him I tell my trouble.

3 When my spirit was fainting within me, then thou knewest my paths; in the very way wherein I was walking, they hid a snare for me.

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 I looked on my right hand, and behold, for there was none that noticed me; refuge failed me; and there was none that cared for my soul.

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 cried unto thee, O Lord, and said, Thou art my hope, my portion in the land of the living.

5 I cry to you, LORD; I say, “You are my refuge, my portion in the land of the living.”

6 Attend to my supplication, for I am brought very low; deliver me from them that persecute me; for they are stronger than I.

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 Bring my soul out of prison, that I may give thanks to thy name, O Lord; the righteous shall wait for me, until thou recompense 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.
