Psalms 142

1 A Maskil of David, when he was in the cave. A prayer. I cry aloud to the LORD; I lift my voice to the LORD for mercy.

1 我向耶和华大声呼求， 我高声向祂求助，

2 I pour out my complaint before Him; I reveal my trouble to Him.

2 我在祂面前倾诉我的苦情， 向祂述说我的患难。

3 Although my spirit grows faint within me, You know my way. Along the path I travel they have hidden a snare for me.

3 耶和华啊，我心力交瘁的时候， 只有你知道我当走的路。 敌人已在我行的路上铺下网罗。

4 Look to my right and see; no one attends to me. There is no refuge for me; no one cares for my soul.

4 看看我左右，无人关心我； 我走投无路，无人眷顾我。

5 I cry to You, O LORD: “You are my refuge, my portion in the land of the living.”

5 耶和华啊，我向你呼求， 你是我的避难所， 在世上你是我的福分。

6 Listen to my cry, for I am brought quite low. Rescue me from my pursuers, for they are too strong for me.

6 求你垂听我的呼求， 因为我身陷绝境。 求你救我脱离迫害我的人， 因为他们比我强大。

7 Free my soul from prison, that I may praise Your name. The righteous will gather around me because of Your goodness to me.

7 求你救我脱离牢笼， 好让我赞美你。 因为你恩待我， 义人必聚集在我周围。
