Psalm 142
New King James Version
A Plea for Relief from Persecutors
A (A)Contemplation[a] of David. A Prayer (B)when he was in the cave.
142 I cry out to the Lord with my voice;
With my voice to the Lord I make my supplication.
2 I pour out my complaint before Him;
I declare before Him my trouble.
3 When my spirit [b]was (C)overwhelmed within me,
Then You knew my path.
In the way in which I walk
They have secretly (D)set a snare for me.
4 Look on my right hand and see,
For there is no one who acknowledges me;
Refuge has failed me;
No one cares for my soul.
5 I cried out to You, O Lord:
I said, “You are my refuge,
My portion in the land of the living.
6 [c]Attend to my cry,
For I am brought very low;
Deliver me from my persecutors,
For they are stronger than I.
7 Bring my soul out of prison,
That I may (E)praise Your name;
The righteous shall surround me,
For You shall deal bountifully with me.”

Nueva Biblia de las Américas
Salmo 142
Oración en la angustia
Masquil de David, cuando estaba en la cueva. Plegaria.
142 Clamo al Señor con mi voz(A);
Con mi voz suplico al Señor(B).
2 Delante de Él expongo mi queja(C);
En Su presencia manifiesto mi angustia(D).
3 Cuando mi espíritu desmayaba dentro de mí(E),
Tú conociste mi senda.
En la senda en que camino
Me han tendido una trampa(F).
4 Mira a la derecha, y ve,
Porque no hay quien me tome en cuenta(G);
No hay refugio para mí(H);
No hay quien cuide de mi alma(I).
5 ¶A Ti he clamado, Señor;
Dije: «Tú eres mi refugio(J),
Mi porción(K) en la tierra de los vivientes(L).
6 -»Atiende a mi clamor(M),
Porque estoy muy abatido(N);
Líbrame de los que me persiguen,
Porque son más fuertes que yo(O).
7 -»Saca mi alma de la prisión(P),
Para que yo dé gracias a Tu nombre;
Los justos me rodearán,
Porque Tú me colmarás de bendiciones(Q)».
