Psa Psalms, psalm Book of Psalms, psalm 142
(Maskil of Dovid; A tefillah when he was in the me'arah)
I cried out unto Hashem with my voice;
with my voice unto Hashem did I make my techinnah (supplication).1Sa 24:4
I poured out my complaint before Him;
I showed before Him my tzoros.Psa 102:1
When my ruach became faint within me,
then Thou had da'as of my path.
In the way wherein I walked
have they laid a pach (snare, hidden trap) for me.Psa 140:6; Jer 18:22
I looked on my right, and behold,
there was no man that would know me;
refuge failed me;
no man cared for my nefesh.Pro 29:10
I cried unto Thee,
Hashem; I said,
Thou art my refuge and my chelek (portion) in the Eretz HaChayyim.Psa 16:5; Psa 27:13; Psa 91:2
Attend unto my cry;
for I am brought very low;
save me from my persecutors;
for they are stronger than I.
Release my nefesh from prison, to praise Shemecha (Thy Name);
the tzaddikim shall gather about me;
for Thou shalt deal bountifully with me.Psa 143:11
