Psalm 142

1The sound of my cry went up to the Lord; with my voice I made my prayer for grace to the Lord. 2I put all my sorrows before him; and made clear to him all my trouble. 3When my spirit is overcome, your eyes are on my goings; nets have been secretly placed in the way in which I go. 4Looking to my right side, I saw no man who was my friend: I had no safe place; no one had any care for my soul. 5I have made my cry to you, O Lord; I have said, You are my safe place, and my heritage in the land of the living. 6Give ear to my cry, for I am made very low: take me out of the hands of my haters, for they are stronger than I.
