< Psalms 142 >

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.
intellectus David cum esset in spelunca oratio voce mea ad Dominum clamavi voce mea ad Dominum deprecatus sum
2 I will pour out before him my supplication: I will declare before him mine affliction.
effundo in conspectu eius deprecationem meam tribulationem meam ante ipsum pronuntio
3 When my spirit was fainting within me, then you knew my paths; in the very way wherein I was walking, they hid a snare for me.
in deficiendo ex me spiritum meum et tu cognovisti semitas meas in via hac qua ambulabam absconderunt laqueum mihi
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.
considerabam ad dexteram et videbam et non erat qui cognosceret me periit fuga a me et non est qui requirit animam meam
5 I cried to you, O Lord, and said, You are my hope, my portion in the land of the living.
clamavi ad te Domine dixi tu es spes mea portio mea in terra viventium
6 Attend to my supplication, for I am brought very low; deliver me from them that persecute me; for they are stronger than I.
intende ad deprecationem meam quia humiliatus sum nimis libera me a persequentibus me quia confortati sunt super me
7 Bring my soul out of prison, that I may give thanks to your name, O Lord; the righteous shall wait for me, until you recompense me.
educ de custodia animam meam ad confitendum nomini tuo me expectant iusti donec retribuas mihi
