Psalms 142
142
A Contemplative Maskil of David, when he was in the cave. A Prayer.
1I cried unto the Lord with my voice;
with my voice I made my supplication unto the Lord.
2#Ps 63:1; 84:2 I poured out my complaint before Him;
I declared to Him my trouble.
3#Ps 79:10; 80:5 When my spirit was overwhelmed within me,
then You knew my path.
In the way where I walk,
they have laid a snare for me.
4#Isa 30:29; Ps 62:8 I looked on my right and noticed,
but there was no one who would care for me;
there is no refuge for me;
no one cares for my soul.
5#Ps 42:11; 43:5 I cried unto You, O Lord;
I said, “You are my refuge
and my portion in the land of the living.”
6#2Sa 17:22; Dt 3:8–9 Attend to my cry,
for I am brought very low;
deliver me from my persecutors,
for they are stronger than me.
7#Ps 88:7; Jnh 2:3 Bring my soul out of prison,
that I may praise Your name;
the righteous shall surround me,
for You shall deal bountifully with me.
