Psalms 142

142
Psalm 142
Maschil of David; A Prayer when he was in the cave.
1¶ I shall cry unto the Lord with my voice; with my voice shall I ask the Lord for mercy.
2I shall pour out my complaint before him; before him I shall tell of my trouble.
3When my spirit was overwhelmed within me, then thou didst know my path. In the way in which I walked have they secretly laid a snare for me.
4¶ I looked on my right hand, and beheld, but there was no one that would know me; I had no refuge; no one cared for my soul.
5I cried unto thee, O Lord; I said, Thou art my hope and my portion in the land of the living.
6Attend unto my cry, for I am brought very low; deliver me from my persecutors; for they are stronger than I.
7Bring my soul out of prison, that I may praise thy name; the righteous shall feast with me; when thou shalt have weaned me.
