Maschil of David; A Prayer when he was in the cave.
2.I poured out my complaint before him; I shewed before him my trouble.
3.When my spirit was overwhelmed within me, then thou knewest my path. In the way wherein I walked have they privily laid a snare for me.
5.I cried unto thee, O LORD: I said, Thou art my refuge and 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 stronger than I.
7.Bring my soul out of prison, that I may praise thy name: the righteous shall compass me about; for thou shalt deal bountifully with me.
