Psalm 142
NET Parallel NASB [BSB CSB ESV HCS KJV ISV NAS NET NIV NLT HEB]
NET BibleNew American Standard Bible 1995
1A well-written song by David, when he was in the cave; a prayer. To the LORD I cry out; to the LORD I plead for mercy. 1Maskil of David, when he was in the cave. A Prayer. I cry aloud with my voice to the LORD; I make supplication with my voice to the LORD.
2I pour out my lament before him; I tell him about my troubles. 2I pour out my complaint before Him; I declare my trouble before Him.
3Even when my strength leaves me, you watch my footsteps. In the path where I walk they have hidden a trap for me. 3When my spirit was overwhelmed within me, You knew my path. In the way where I walk They have hidden a trap for me.
4Look to the right and see! No one cares about me. I have nowhere to run; no one is concerned about my life. 4Look to the right and see; For there is no one who regards me; There is no escape for me; No one cares for my soul.
5I cry out to you, O LORD; I say, "You are my shelter, my security in the land of the living." 5I cried out to You, O LORD; I said, "You are my refuge, My portion in the land of the living.
6Listen to my cry for help, for I am in serious trouble! Rescue me from those who chase me, for they are stronger than I am. 6"Give heed to my cry, For I am brought very low; Deliver me from my persecutors, For they are too strong for me.
7Free me from prison, that I may give thanks to your name. Because of me the godly will assemble, for you will vindicate me. 7"Bring my soul out of prison, So that I may give thanks to Your name; The righteous will surround me, For You will deal bountifully with me."
