1 With my voice I cry unto the LORD; with my voice I make supplication unto the LORD.

2 I pour out my complaint before Him, I declare before Him my trouble;

3 When my spirit fainteth within me--Thou knowest my path--in the way wherein I walk have they hidden a snare for me.

4 Look on my right hand, and see, for there is no man that knoweth me; I have no way to flee; no man careth for my soul.

5 I have cried unto Thee, O LORD; I have said: 'Thou art my refuge, my portion in the land of the living.'

6 Attend unto my cry; for I am brought very low; deliver me from my persecutors; for they are too strong for me.

7 Bring my soul out of prison, that I may give thanks unto Thy name; the righteous shall crown themselves because of me; for Thou wilt deal bountifully with me.
