< Psalms 142 >
1 The understanding of David. A prayer, when he was in the cave. With my voice, I cried out to the Lord. With my voice, I made supplication to the Lord.
Maskil to/for David in/on/with to be he in/on/with cave prayer voice my to(wards) LORD to cry out voice my to(wards) LORD be gracious
2 In his sight, I pour out my prayer, and before him, I declare my tribulation.
to pour: pour to/for face: before his complaint my distress my to/for face: before his to tell
3 Though my spirit may become faint within me, even then, you have known my paths. Along this way, which I have been walking, they have hidden a snare for me.
in/on/with to enfeeble upon me spirit my and you(m. s.) to know path my in/on/with way this to go: walk to hide snare to/for me
4 I considered toward the right, and I looked, but there was no one who would know me. Flight has perished before me, and there is no one who has concern for my soul.
to look right and to see: see and nothing to/for me to recognize to perish refuge from me nothing to seek to/for soul my
5 I cried out to you, O Lord. I said: You are my hope, my portion in the land of the living.
