Psalms 142

1 The understanding of David. A prayer, when he was in the cave. With my voice, I cried out to the Lord. With my voice, I made supplication to the Lord.

Гласом својим ка Господу вичем, гласом својим Господу се молим.

2 In his sight, I pour out my prayer, and before him, I declare my tribulation.

Изливам пред Њим мољење своје, тугу своју пред Њим казујем,

3 Though my spirit may become faint within me, even then, you have known my paths. Along this way, which I have been walking, they have hidden a snare for me.

Кад изнемогне у мени дух мој. Ти знаш стазу моју. На путу, којим ходим, сакрише ми замку.

4 I considered toward the right, and I looked, but there was no one who would know me. Flight has perished before me, and there is no one who has concern for my soul.

Погледам надесно, и видим да ме нико не зна; нестаде ми уточишта, нико не мари за душу моју.

5 I cried out to you, O Lord. I said: You are my hope, my portion in the land of the living.

Вичем к Теби, Господе; велим: Ти си уточиште моје, део мој на земљи живих.

6 Attend to my supplication. For I have been humbled exceedingly. Free me from my persecutors, for they have been fortified against me.

Чуј тужњаву моју; јер се мучим веома. Избави ме од оних који ме гоне, јер су јачи од мене.

7 Lead my soul out of confinement in order to confess your name. The just are waiting for me, until you repay me.

Изведи из тамнице душу моју, да славим име Твоје. Око мене ће се скупити праведници, кад ми учиниш добро.
