A Plea for Relief from Persecutors

Chapter 142

  1. I cry out to the Lord with my voice; With my voice to the Lord I make my supplication.

  2. I pour out my complaint before Him; I declare before Him my trouble.

  3. When my spirit was overwhelmed within me, Then You knew my path. In the way in which I walk They have secretly set a snare for me.

  4. Look on my right hand and see, For there is no one who acknowledges me; Refuge has failed me; No one cares for my soul.

  5. I cried out to You, O Lord: I said, "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 stronger than I.

  7. Bring my soul out of prison, That I may praise Your name; The righteous shall surround me, For You shall deal bountifully with me."
