Psalms 142

Maschil of David; A Prayer when he was in the cave.

1I criedH2199 to the LORDH3068 with my voiceH6963; with my voiceH6963 to the LORDH3068 I made my supplicationH2603.1 2I poured outH8210 my complaintH7879 beforeH6440 him; I showedH5046 beforeH6440 him my troubleH6869. 3When my spiritH7307 was overwhelmedH5848 within me, then thou knewestH3045 my pathH5410. In the wayH734 in whichH2098 I walkedH1980 have they secretly laidH2934 a snareH6341 for me.

4I lookedH5027 on my right handH3225, and beheldH7200, but there was no man that would knowH5234 me: refugeH4498 failedH6 me; no man caredH1875 for my soulH5315.234 5I criedH2199 to thee, O LORDH3068: I saidH559, Thou art my refugeH4268 and my portionH2506 in the landH776 of the livingH2416. 6AttendH7181 to my cryH7440; for I am broughtH1809 veryH3966 lowH1809: deliverH5337 me from my persecutorsH7291; for they are strongerH553 than I. 7BringH3318 my soulH5315 out of prisonH4525, that I may praiseH3034 thy nameH8034: the righteousH6662 shall surround meH3803; for thou shalt deal bountifullyH1580 with me.
