< Psalms 142 >
1 AN INSTRUCTION OF DAVID. A PRAYER WHEN HE IS IN THE CAVE. My voice [is] to YHWH, I cry, My voice [is] to YHWH, I beg [for] grace.
Iyasugko ti timekko kenni Yahweh; iti napigsa a timek agpakaasiak kenni Yahweh.
2 I pour forth my meditation before Him, I declare my distress before Him.
Agdung-awak iti sangoananna; ibagak kenkuana dagiti pakariribukak.
3 When my spirit has been feeble in me, Then You have known my path; In the way [in] which I walk, They have hid a snare for me.
No agkapoy ti espirituk iti kaunggak, ammom ti dalanko. Iti dalan a pagnaak, nangilemmengda iti pakaipalab-ogak.
4 Looking on the right hand—and seeing, And I have none recognizing; Refuge has perished from me, There is none inquiring for my soul.
Kumitaak iti makannawanko ket nakitak nga awan ti mangikankano kaniak. Awan ti mangsalaknib kaniak; awan ti mangikankano iti biagko.
5 I have cried to you, O YHWH, I have said, “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 Attend to my loud cry, For I have become very low, Deliver me from my pursuers, For they have been stronger than I.
Dumngegka iti asugko, ta naibabaak unayen; ispalennak kadagiti mangparparigat kaniak, gapu ta napigpigsada ngem siak.
7 Bring forth my soul from prison to confess Your Name, The righteous surround me about, When You confer benefits on me!
Irruarmo ti kararuak manipud iti pagbaludan tapno makapagyamanak ti naganmo. Maummong iti aglawlawko dagiti nalinteg gapu ta nagsayaatka kaniak.”
