142 Ako'y dumadaing ng aking tinig sa Panginoon; ako'y namamanhik ng aking tinig sa Panginoon.

Aking ibinubugso ang daing ko sa harap niya; aking ipinakilala sa harap niya ang kabagabagan ko.

Nang nanglupaypay ang diwa ko sa loob ko, nalaman mo ang aking landas. Sa daan na aking nilalakaran ay pinagkukublihan nila ako ng silo.

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.

Ako'y dumaing sa iyo, Oh Panginoon; aking sinabi: Ikaw ay aking kanlungan, aking bahagi sa lupain ng may buhay.

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.

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[a]

A maskil[b] of David. When he was in the cave.(A) A prayer.

I cry aloud(B) to the Lord;
    I lift up my voice to the Lord for mercy.(C)
I pour out before him my complaint;(D)
    before him I tell my trouble.(E)

When my spirit grows faint(F) within me,
    it is you who watch over my way.
In the path where I walk
    people have hidden a snare for me.
Look and see, there is no one at my right hand;
    no one is concerned for me.
I have no refuge;(G)
    no one cares(H) for my life.

I cry to you, Lord;
    I say, “You are my refuge,(I)
    my portion(J) in the land of the living.”(K)

Listen to my cry,(L)
    for I am in desperate need;(M)
rescue me(N) from those who pursue me,
    for they are too strong(O) for me.
Set me free from my prison,(P)
    that I may praise your name.(Q)
Then the righteous will gather about me
    because of your goodness to me.(R)

You Are My Refuge

A Maskil[a] of David, when he was in (A)the cave. A Prayer.

142 With my voice I (B)cry out to the Lord;
    with my voice I (C)plead for mercy to the Lord.
I (D)pour out my complaint before him;
    I tell my trouble before him.

When my spirit (E)faints within me,
    you know my way!
In the path where I walk
    they have (F)hidden a trap for me.
(G)Look to the (H)right and see:
    (I)there is none who takes notice of me;
(J)no refuge remains to me;
    no one cares for my soul.

I cry to you, O Lord;
    I say, “You are my (K)refuge,
    my (L)portion in (M)the land of the living.”
(N)Attend to my cry,
    for (O)I am brought very low!
Deliver me from my persecutors,
    (P)for they are too strong for me!
(Q)Bring me out of prison,
    that I may give thanks to your name!
The righteous will surround me,
    for you will (R)deal bountifully with me.
