AMP ▾Psalms ▾142 ▾Psalms 1421I cry aloud with my voice to the L ord ; I make supplication with my voice to the L ord .2I pour out my complaint before Him; I declare my trouble before Him.3When my spirit was overwhelmed and weak within me [wrapped in darkness], You knew my path. In the way where I walk They have hidden a trap for me.4Look to the right [the point of attack] and see; For there is no one who has regard for me [to act in my favor]. Escape has failed me and I have nowhere to run; No one cares about my life.5¶I cried out to You, O L ord ; I said, “You are my refuge, My portion in the land of the living.6“Give attention to my cry, For I am brought very low; Rescue me from my persecutors, For they are stronger than I.7“Bring my soul out of prison (adversity), So that I may give thanks and praise Your name; The righteous will surround me [in triumph], For You will look after me.”Psalms 141Psalms 143
