Psalm 142

The Message Bible MSG

1 I cry out loudly to God, loudly I plead with God for mercy.

2 I spill out all my complaints before him, and spell out my troubles in detail:

3 "As I sink in despair, my spirit ebbing away, you know how I'm feeling, Know the danger I'm in, the traps hidden in my path.

4 Look right, look left - there's not a soul who cares what happens! I'm up against it, with no exit - bereft, left alone.

5 I cry out, God, call out: 'You're my last chance, my only hope for life!'

6 Oh listen, please listen; I've never been this low. Rescue me from those who are hunting me down; I'm no match for them.

7 Get me out of this dungeon so I can thank you in public. Your people will form a circle around me and you'll bring me showers of blessing!"

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.
