Psalm 142

Prayer for Deliverance from Persecutors

A Maskil of David. When he was in the cave. A Prayer.

¹With my voice I cry to the Lord;
    with my voice I make supplication to the Lord.
²I pour out my complaint before him;
    I tell my trouble before him.
³When my spirit is faint,
    you know my way.

In the path where I walk
they have hidden a trap for me.
