1 | I cry with my voice to the LORD, with my voice I make supplication to the LORD, |
2 | I pour out my complaint before him, I tell my trouble before him. |
3 | When my spirit is faint, thou knowest my way! In the path where I walk they have hidden a trap for me. |
4 | I look to the right and watch, but there is none who takes notice of me; no refuge remains to me, no man cares for me. |
5 | I cry to thee, O LORD; I say, Thou art my refuge, my portion in the land of the living. |
6 | Give heed 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 thy name! The righteous will surround me; for thou wilt deal bountifully with me. |
