A Maskil of David, when he was in the cave. A prayer. I cry aloud to the LORD; I lift my voice to the LORD for mercy.

Look to my right and see; no one attends to me. There is no refuge for me; no one cares for my soul.

Free my soul from prison, that I may praise Your name. The righteous will gather around me because of Your goodness to me.
