The American Standard Version of 1901

Psalms 142

1

Maschil of David, when he was in the cave; a Prayer. I cry with my voice unto Jehovah; With my voice unto Jehovah do I make supplication.

2

I pour out my complaint before him; I show before him my trouble.

3

When my spirit 1 was overwhelmed within me, Thou knewest my path. In the way wherein I walk Have they hidden a snare for me. 1) Or fainted

4

Look on my right hand, and see; For there is no man that knoweth me: Refuge hath failed me; No man careth for my soul.

5

I cried unto thee, O Jehovah; I said, Thou art my refuge, My portion in the land of the living.

6

Attend unto my cry; For I am brought very low: Deliver me from my persecutors; For they are stronger than I.

7

Bring my soul out of prison, That I may give thanks unto thy name: The righteous shall 1 compass me about; For thou wilt deal bountifully with me. 1) Or crown themselves because of me
