Awit 142
Ang Dating Biblia (1905)
142 Ako'y dumadaing ng aking tinig sa Panginoon; ako'y namamanhik ng aking tinig sa Panginoon.
2 Aking ibinubugso ang daing ko sa harap niya; aking ipinakilala sa harap niya ang kabagabagan ko.
3 Nang nanglupaypay ang diwa ko sa loob ko, nalaman mo ang aking landas. Sa daan na aking nilalakaran ay pinagkukublihan nila ako ng silo.
4 Tumingin ka sa aking kanan, at tingnan mo: sapagka't walang tao na nakakakilala sa akin: kanlungan ay kulang ako; walang taong lumilingap sa aking kaluluwa.
5 Ako'y dumaing sa iyo, Oh Panginoon; aking sinabi: Ikaw ay aking kanlungan, aking bahagi sa lupain ng may buhay.
6 Pakinggan mo ang aking daing; sapagka't ako'y totoong nababa: iligtas mo ako sa nagsisiusig sa akin; sapagka't sila'y malakas kay sa akin.
7 Ilabas mo ang aking kaluluwa sa bilangguan, upang ako'y makapagpasalamat sa iyong pangalan: kubkubin ako ng matuwid; sapagka't ikaw ay gagawang may kagandahang-loob sa akin.
Psalm 142
New American Standard Bible
Prayer for Help in Trouble.
[a]Maskil of David, when he was [b]in the cave. A Prayer.
142 I (A)cry out with my voice to the Lord;
With my voice I (B)implore the Lord for compassion.
2 I (C)pour out my complaint before Him;
I declare my (D)trouble before Him.
3 When (E)my spirit felt weak within me,
You knew my path.
In the way where I walk
They have (F)hidden a trap for me.
4 Look to the right and see;
For there is (G)no one who regards me favorably;
[c]There is no (H)escape for me;
(I)No one cares for my soul.
5 I cried out to You, Lord;
I said, “You are (J)my refuge,
My (K)portion in the (L)land of the living.
6 (M)Give Your attention to my cry,
For I have been (N)brought very low;
Rescue me from my persecutors,
For they are too (O)strong for me.
7 (P)Bring my soul out of prison,
So that I may give thanks to Your name;
The righteous will surround me,
For You will (Q)look after me.”
