1 (141-1) <Of understanding for David, A prayer when he was in the cave.> (141-2) I cried to the Lord with my voice: with my voice I made supplication to the Lord.
1
With my voice I cry to the Lord; with my voice I make supplication to the Lord.
2 (141-3) In his sight I pour out my prayer, and before him I declare my trouble:
2
I pour out my complaint before him; I tell my trouble before him.
3 (141-4) When my spirit failed me, then thou knewest my paths. In this way wherein I walked, they have hidden a snare for me.
3
When my spirit is faint, you know my way. In the path where I walk they have hidden a trap for me.
4 (141-5) I looked on my right hand, and beheld, and there was no one that would know me. Flight hath failed me: and there is no one that hath regard to my soul.
4
Look on my right hand and see— there is no one who takes notice of me; no refuge remains to me; no one cares for me.
5 (141-6) I cried to thee, O Lord: I said: Thou art my hope, my portion in the land of the living.
5
I cry to you, O Lord; I say, "You are my refuge, my portion in the land of the living."
6 (141-7) Attend to my supplication: for I am brought very low. Deliver me from my persecutors; for they are stronger than I.
6
Give heed to my cry, for I am brought very low. Save me from my persecutors, for they are too strong for me.
7 (141-8) Bring my soul out of prison, that I may praise thy name: the just wait for me, until thou reward me.
7
Bring me out of prison, so that I may give thanks to your name. The righteous will surround me, for you will deal bountifully with me.
