Psalms 142

1 Maschil of David, when he was in the cave; a Prayer. With my voice I cry unto the LORD; with my voice I make supplication unto the LORD.

Dāvida pamācība; lūgšana, kad viņš bija alā. Es piesaucu To Kungu ar savu balsi, es lūdzu To Kungu ar savu balsi.

2 I pour out my complaint before Him, I declare before Him my trouble;

Es izgāžu savu žēlošanos Viņa priekšā, es izstāstu Viņa priekšā savas bēdas.

3 When my spirit fainteth within me — Thou knowest my path — in the way wherein I walk have they hidden a snare for me.

Kad mans gars iztrūcināts, tad Tu zini manu ceļu; tie man liek valgus ceļā, kur es eju.

4 Look on my right hand, and see, for there is no man that knoweth me; I have no way to flee; no man careth for my soul.

Skaties pa labo roku un redzi, tur nav neviena, kas mani grib pazīt: es nekur nevaru izbēgt, neviens nebēdā par manu dvēseli.

5 I have cried unto Thee, O LORD; I have said: 'Thou art my refuge, my portion in the land of the living.'

Tevi es piesaucu, Kungs; es saku: Tu esi mana cerība, mana daļa dzīvo zemē.

6 Attend unto my cry; for I am brought very low; deliver me from my persecutors; for they are too strong for me.

Ņem vērā manu kliegšanu, jo es esmu ļoti nonīcis; izglāb mani no maniem vajātājiem, jo tie man ir visai vareni.

7 Bring my soul out of prison, that I may give thanks unto Thy name; the righteous shall crown themselves because of me; for Thou wilt deal bountifully with me.

Izved manu dvēseli no cietuma, ka es pateicos Tavam vārdam; par mani gavilēs taisnie, kad Tu man labu darīsi.
