1I cry with my voice unto Jehovah;
With my voice unto Jehovah do I make supplication.

2I pour out my complaint before him;
I show before him my trouble.

3When my spirit was overwhelmed within me,
Thou knewest my path.
In the way wherein I walk
Have they hidden a snare for me.

4Look on my right hand, and see;
For there is no man that knoweth me:
Refuge hath failed me;
No man careth for my soul.

5I cried unto thee, O Jehovah;
I said, Thou art my refuge,
My portion in the land of the living.

6Attend unto my cry;
For I am brought very low:
Deliver me from my persecutors;
For they are stronger than I.

7Bring my soul out of prison,
That I may give thanks unto thy name:
The righteous shall compass me about;
For thou wilt deal bountifully with me.
