Psalms Chapter 142

• Psalms 142:1
  Psalms.
• Psalms 142:2
  A contemplation by David, when he was in the cave. A Prayer. I cry with my voice to the LORD. With my voice, I ask the LORD for mercy.
• Psalms 142:3
  I pour out my complaint before him. I tell him my troubles.
• Psalms 142:4
  When my spirit was overwhelmed within me, you knew my route. On the path in which I walk, they have hidden a snare for me.
• Psalms 142:5
  Look on my right, and see; for there is no one who is concerned for me. Refuge has fled from me. No one cares for my soul.
• Psalms 142:6
  I cried to you, LORD. I said, “You are my refuge, my portion in the land of the living.”
• Psalms 142:7
  Listen to my cry, for I am in desperate need. Deliver me from my persecutors, for they are too strong for me.
• Psalms 142:8
  Bring my soul out of prison, that I may give thanks to your name. The righteous will surround me, for you will be good to me.
