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.”

Salmos 142
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)».
