Psalm 142 - Maschil of David; A
Prayer when he was in the cave

I cried unto the Lord with my
voice; with my voice unto the

Lord did I make my supplication.

I poured out my complaint before
him; I shewed before him my trouble.

When my spirit was overwhelmed
within me, then thou knewest my path.

In the way wherein I walked have
they privily laid a snare for me.

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.

I cried unto thee, O Lord: I
said, Thou art my refuge and my

portion in the land of the living.

Attend unto my cry; for I am brought
very low: me from my persecutors;

for they are stronger than I.

Bring my soul out of prison, that I
may praise thy name: the righteous

shall compass me about; for thou
shalt deal bountifully with me.
