Psalms 142

1 Maschil of David; a prayer when he was in the cave. I cried to the LORD with my voice; with my voice to the LORD I made my supplication.

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

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

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

3 When my spirit was overwhelmed within me, then thou knewest my path. In the way in which I walked have they privily laid 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 beheld, but [there was] no man that would know me: refuge failed me; no man 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 to thee, O LORD: I said, Thou [art] my refuge [and] 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 cry; for I am brought very low: deliver me from my persecutors; 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 praise thy name: the righteous shall encompass me; for thou wilt deal bountifully with 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.
