Chapter 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. |
