Psalms 142

1 An instruction of David; when he was in the cave: a prayer. I cry unto Jehovah with my voice: with my voice unto Jehovah do I make supplication.

Intellectus David, Cum esset in spelunca, oratio. Voce mea ad Dominum clamavi: voce mea ad Dominum deprecatus sum:

2 I pour out my plaint before him; I shew before him my trouble.

Effundo in conspectu eius orationem meam, et tribulationem meam ante ipsum pronuncio.

3 When my spirit was overwhelmed within me, then thou knewest my path. In the way wherein I walked have they hidden a snare for me.

In deficiendo ex me spiritum meum, et tu cognovisti semitas meas. In via hac, qua ambulabam, absconderunt laqueum mihi.

4 Look on the right hand and see; there is no man that knoweth me: refuge hath failed me; no man careth for my soul.

Considerabam ad dexteram, et videbam: et non erat qui cognosceret me. Periit fuga a me, et non est qui requirat animam meam.

5 I cried unto thee, Jehovah; I said, Thou art my refuge, my portion in the land of the living.

Clamavi ad te Domine, dixi: Tu es spes mea, portio mea in terra viventium.

6 Attend unto my cry, for I am brought very low; deliver me from my persecutors, 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 celebrate thy name. The righteous shall surround me, because thou dealest bountifully with me.

Educ de custodia animam meam ad confitendum nomini tuo: me expectant iusti, donec retribuas mihi.
