1: I cried unto the LORD with my voice; with my voice unto
the LORD did I make my supplication. |
|
2: I poured out my complaint before him; I shewed before him my
trouble. |
|
3:
When my spirit was overwhelmed within me, then thou knewest my
path. In the way wherein I walked have they privily laid a snare for me.
|
|
4: I looked on my right hand, and beheld, but there was no man
that would know me: refuge failed me; no man cared for my soul. |
|
5: I cried unto thee, O LORD: I said, Thou art my refuge and 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 praise thy name: the
righteous shall compass me about; for thou shalt deal bountifully with
me. |
