A maskil [a] by David when he was in the cave; a prayer.

142 Loudly, I cry to the Lord.
Loudly, I plead with the Lord for mercy.
I pour out my complaints in his presence
and tell him my troubles.
When I begin to lose hope,
you ⌞already⌟ know what I am experiencing.

⌞My enemies⌟ have hidden a trap for me on the path where I walk.
