142:1 I cry out loud for help from the Lord. I beg out loud for mercy from the Lord.
142:2 I pour out my concerns before God; I announce my distress to him.
142:3 When my spirit is weak inside me, you still know my way. But they’ve hidden a trap for me in the path I’m taking.
142:4 Look right beside me: See? No one pays attention to me. There’s no escape for me. No one cares about my life.
142:5 I cry to you, Lord, for help. “You are my refuge,” I say. “You are all I have in the land of the living.”
142:6 Pay close attention to my shouting, because I’ve been brought down so low! Deliver me from my oppressors because they’re stronger than me.
142:7 Get me out of this prison so I can give thanks to your name. Then the righteous will gather all around me because of your good deeds to me.
