< Psalms 142 >
1 A Maskil of David, when he was in the cave. A prayer. I cry aloud to the LORD; I lift my voice to the LORD for mercy.
Iyasugko ti timekko kenni Yahweh; iti napigsa a timek agpakaasiak kenni Yahweh.
2 I pour out my complaint before Him; I reveal my trouble to Him.
Agdung-awak iti sangoananna; ibagak kenkuana dagiti pakariribukak.
3 Although my spirit grows faint within me, You know my way. Along the path I travel they have hidden a snare for me.
No agkapoy ti espirituk iti kaunggak, ammom ti dalanko. Iti dalan a pagnaak, nangilemmengda iti pakaipalab-ogak.
4 Look to my right and see; no one attends to me. There is no refuge for me; no one cares for my soul.
Kumitaak iti makannawanko ket nakitak nga awan ti mangikankano kaniak. Awan ti mangsalaknib kaniak; awan ti mangikankano iti biagko.
5 I cry to You, O LORD: “You are my refuge, my portion in the land of the living.”
Immawagak kenka, O Yahweh; Kinunak, “Sika ti kamangko, ti kasapulak iti daga dagiti sibibiag.
6 Listen to my cry, for I am brought quite low. Rescue me from my pursuers, for they are too strong for me.
Dumngegka iti asugko, ta naibabaak unayen; ispalennak kadagiti mangparparigat kaniak, gapu ta napigpigsada ngem siak.
7 Free my soul from prison, that I may praise Your name. The righteous will gather around me because of Your goodness to me.
Irruarmo ti kararuak manipud iti pagbaludan tapno makapagyamanak ti naganmo. Maummong iti aglawlawko dagiti nalinteg gapu ta nagsayaatka kaniak.”
