(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
