Salmos 142

1 Con mi voz clamo a Yavé. Con mi voz suplico a Yavé.

[A Psalm] of instruction for David, when he was in the cave, —a Prayer. I cried to the Lord with my voice; with my voice I made supplication to the Lord.

2 Ante Él derramo mi queja. Declaro mi aflicción ante Él.

I will pour out before him my supplication: I will declare before him mine affliction.

3 Cuando mi espíritu desmayaba dentro de mí, Tú conociste mi sendero. En el camino por donde ando Ellos me escondieron una trampa.

When my spirit was fainting within me, then you knew my paths; in the very way wherein I was walking, they hid a snare for me.

4 Miro a la derecha y observo Que no hay uno quien me atienda. No hay escape para mí. Nadie se preocupa por mi vida.

I looked on [my] right hand, and behold, for there was none that noticed me; refuge failed me; and there was none that cared for my soul.

5 A Ti clamo, oh Yavé. Digo: Tú eres mi Refugio, Mi porción en la tierra de los que viven.

I cried to you, O Lord, and said, You are my hope, my portion in the land of the living.

6 Presta oído a mi clamor, Porque estoy muy abatido. Líbrame de mis perseguidores, Porque son demasiado fuertes para mí.

Attend to my supplication, for I am brought very low; deliver me from them that persecute me; for they are stronger than I.

7 Saca mi vida de la prisión, Para que dé gracias a tu Nombre. Me rodearán los justos, Porque Tú me tratarás con abundancia.

Bring my soul out of prison, that I may give thanks to your name, O Lord; the righteous shall wait for me, until you recompense me.
