Psalm 142
Brenton's Septuagint Translation Par ▾ 

I Lift My Voice to the LORD

1(141:1) A Psalm of instruction for David, when he was in the cave, - a Prayer. I cried to the Lord with my voice; with my voice I made supplication to the Lord.

2(141:2) I will pour out before him my supplication: I will declare before him mine affliction.

3(141:3) When my spirit was fainting within me, then thou knewest my paths; in the very way wherein I was walking, they hid a snare for me.

4(141:4) I looked on my right hand, and behold, for there was none that noticed me; refuge failed me; and there was none that cared for my soul.

5(141:5) I cried unto thee, O Lord, and said, Thou art my hope, my portion in the land of the living.

6(141:6) Attend to my supplication, for I am brought very low; deliver me from them that persecute me; for they are stronger than I.

7(141:7) Bring my soul out of prison, that I may give thanks to thy name, O Lord; the righteous shall wait for me, until thou recompense me.
