Psalm 142:4-6

International Standard Version

⁴I look to my right^[a] and observe—
no one is concerned about me.
There is nowhere I can go for refuge,
and no one cares for me.

⁵So I cry to you, Lord,
    declaring, “You are my refuge,
        my only^[b] possession while I am on this earth.”^[c]
⁶Pay attention to my cry,
    for I have been brought very low.
Deliver me from my tormentors,
    for they are far too strong for me.
