Psalms 142

King James (Authorized) Version · 7 verses

  1. 1 I cried unto the LORD with my voice; with my voice unto the LORD did I make my supplication.
  2. 2 I poured out my complaint before him; I shewed before him my trouble.
  3. 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. 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. 5 I cried unto thee, O LORD: I said, Thou art my refuge and my portion in the land of the living.
  6. 6 Attend unto my cry; for I am brought very low: deliver me from my persecutors; for they are stronger than I.
  7. 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.
