Salme 142
Bibelen på hverdagsdansk
Råb om hjælp
142 En visdomssang og bøn af David, fra dengang han gemte sig i en hule.
2 Jeg råber højt til Herren,
trygler ham om nåde.
3 Jeg udøser min nød for ham,
betror ham mine problemer.
4 Når jeg er modløs og opgivende,
viser du mig den vej, jeg skal gå,
for de har sat fælder op alle vegne.
5 Jeg ser mig omkring til højre og venstre,
men alle virker så ligeglade,
ingen vil føre mig i sikkerhed,
ingen er villige til at hjælpe.
6 Herre, derfor råber jeg til dig,
du er min tilflugt, mit eneste håb.
7 Lyt til min bøn, for jeg er i stor nød.
Red mig, for mine forfølgere er stærke.
8 Hjælp mig ud af det her fængsel,
så jeg atter kan takke og tilbede dig.
Når du griber ind og redder mig,
vil de gudfrygtige samles og takke dig for det.

Psalm 142
English Standard Version
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.
2 I (D)pour out my complaint before him;
I tell my trouble before him.
3 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.
4 (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.
5 I cry to you, O Lord;
I say, “You are my (K)refuge,
my (L)portion in (M)the land of the living.”
6 (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!
7 (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.
