Psalm 142
1 I cried unto the LORD with my voice; with my voice unto
the LORD did I make my supplication.
2 I poured out my complaint before him; I shewed before him
my trouble.
3 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.
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.
5 I cried unto thee, O LORD: I said, Thou art my refuge and
my portion in the land of the living.
6 Attend unto my cry; for I am brought very low: deliver me
from my persecutors; for they are stronger than I.
7 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.
