Psalms 142

English Standard Version (ESV)

Back to Bible
1 [1]ⓐ With my voice Iⓑ cry out to the LORD; with my voice Iⓒ plead for mercy to the LORD.
2 Iⓓ pour out my complaint before him; I tell my trouble before him.
3 When my spiritⓔ faints within me, you know my way! In the path where I walk they haveⓕ hidden a trap for me.
4 ⓖ Look to theⓗ right and see: ⓘthere is none who takes notice of me; ⓙno refuge remains to me; no one cares for my soul.
5 I cry to you, O LORD; I say, “You are myⓚ refuge, myⓛ portion inⓜ the land of the living.”
6 ⓝ Attend to my cry, forⓞ I am brought very low! Deliver me from my persecutors, ⓟfor they are too strong for me!
7 ⓠ Bring me out of prison, that I may give thanks to your name! The righteous will surround me, for you willⓡ deal bountifully with me.
