< Psalms 142 >

1 The lernyng of Dauid; `his preier, `whanne he was in the denne. With my vois Y criede to the Lord; with my vois Y preiede hertli to the Lord.
大衛在洞裏作的訓誨詩,乃是祈禱。 我發聲哀告耶和華, 發聲懇求耶和華。
2 I schede out my preier in his siyt; and Y pronounce my tribulacioun bifor him.
我在他面前吐露我的苦情, 陳說我的患難。
3 While my spirit failith of me; and thou hast knowe my pathis. In this weie in which Y yede; proude men hidden a snare to me.
我的靈在我裏面發昏的時候, 你知道我的道路。 在我行的路上, 敵人為我暗設網羅。
4 I bihelde to the riyt side, and Y siy; and noon was that knew me. Fliyt perischide fro me; and noon is that sekith my soule.
求你向我右邊觀看, 因為沒有人認識我; 我無處避難, 也沒有人眷顧我。
5 Lord, Y criede to thee, Y seide, Thou art myn hope; my part in the lond of lyueris.
耶和華啊,我曾向你哀求。 我說:你是我的避難所; 在活人之地,你是我的福分。
6 Yyue thou tent to my biseching; for Y am maad low ful greetli. Delyuere thou me fro hem that pursuen me; for thei ben coumfortid on me.
求你側耳聽我的呼求, 因我落到極卑之地; 求你救我脫離逼迫我的人, 因為他們比我強盛。
7 Lede my soule out of keping to knouleche to thi name; iust men abiden me, til thou yelde to me.
求你領我出離被囚之地, 我好稱讚你的名。 義人必環繞我, 因為你是用厚恩待我。
