Give Heed to My Cry
A● Maskil of David. When he was† in the cave. A Prayer.
With my voice to Yahweh, I acry aloud;With my voice to Yahweh, I bmake supplication.2 I apour out my complaint before Him;I declare my bdistress before Him.3 When amy spirit 1was faint within me,You knew my path.In the way where I walkThey have bhidden a trap for me.4 Look to the right and see;That there is ano one who regards me;bA way of escape has been destroyed from me;cNo one cares for my soul.
5 I cried out to You, O Yahweh;I said, “You are amy refuge,My bportion in the cland of the living.6 “aGive heed to my cry of lamentation,For I am bbrought very low;Deliver me from my persecutors,For they are too cstrong for me.7 “aBring my soul out of prison,To give thanks to Your name;The righteous will encircle me,For You will bdeal bountifully with me.”
