Psalms 141
1A Psalm of instruction for David, when he was in the cave—a Prayer. 1
2I cried to the Lord with my voice; 1 With my voice I made supplication to the Lord. 1
3I will pour out before him my supplication: 1 I will declare before him mine affliction. 1
4When my spirit was fainting within me, 1 Then thou knewest my paths; 1 In the very way wherein I was walking, they hid a snare for me. 1
5I looked on my right hand, and behold, 1 For there was none that noticed me; 1 Refuge failed me; 1 And there was none that cared for my soul. 1
6I cried unto thee, O Lord, 1 And said, Thou art my hope, 1 My portion in the land of the living. 1
7Attend to my supplication, 1 For I am brought very low; 1 Deliver me from them that persecute me; 1 For they are stronger than I. 1
8Bring my soul out of prison, 1 That I may give thanks to thy name, O Lord; 1 The righteous shall wait for me, until thou recompense me.
