诗篇 142

1 大卫在洞里作的训诲诗，乃是祈祷。 我发声哀告耶和华， 发声恳求耶和华。

I cry with my voice to Jehovah. With my voice to Jehovah I make supplication.

2 我在他面前吐露我的苦情， 陈说我的患难。

I pour out my complaint before him. I show my trouble before him.

3 我的灵在我里面发昏的时候， 你知道我的道路。 在我行的路上， 敌人为我暗设网罗。

When my spirit was overwhelmed within me, thou knew my path. In the way in which I walk they have hidden a snare for me.

4 求你向我右边观看， 因为没有人认识我； 我无处避难， 也没有人眷顾我。

Look on my right hand, and see, for there is no man who knows me. Refuge has failed me. No man cares for my soul.

5 耶和华啊，我曾向你哀求。 我说：你是我的避难所； 在活人之地，你是我的福分。

I cried to thee, O Jehovah. I said, Thou are my refuge, my portion in the land of the living.

6 求你侧耳听我的呼求， 因我落到极卑之地； 求你救我脱离逼迫我的人， 因为他们比我强盛。

Attend to my cry, for I am brought very low. Deliver me from my persecutors, for they are stronger than I.

7 求你领我出离被囚之地， 我好称赞你的名。 义人必环绕我， 因为你是用厚恩待我。

Bring my soul out of prison that I may give thanks to thy name. The righteous shall encompass me around, for thou will deal bountifully with me.
