New King James Version | New International Version |
1A Contemplation of David. A Prayer when he was in the cave. I cry out to the LORD with my voice; With my voice to the LORD I make my supplication. | 1A maskil of David. When he was in the cave. A prayer. I cry aloud to the LORD; I lift up my voice to the LORD for mercy. |
2I pour out my complaint before Him; I declare before Him my trouble. | 2I pour out before him my complaint; before him I tell my trouble. |
3When my spirit was overwhelmed within me, Then You knew my path. In the way in which I walk They have secretly set a snare for me. | 3When my spirit grows faint within me, it is you who watch over my way. In the path where I walk people have hidden a snare for me. |
4Look on my right hand and see, For there is no one who acknowledges me; Refuge has failed me; No one cares for my soul. | 4Look and see, there is no one at my right hand; no one is concerned for me. I have no refuge; no one cares for my life. |
5I cried out to You, O LORD: I said, “You are my refuge, My portion in the land of the living. | 5I cry to you, LORD; I say, "You are my refuge, my portion in the land of the living." |
6Attend to my cry, For I am brought very low; Deliver me from my persecutors, For they are stronger than I. | 6Listen to my cry, for I am in desperate need; rescue me from those who pursue me, for they are too strong for me. |
7Bring my soul out of prison, That I may praise Your name; The righteous shall surround me, For You shall deal bountifully with me.” | 7Set me free from my prison, that I may praise your name. Then the righteous will gather about me because of your goodness to me. |
