Psalm 142:5-7

International Standard Version

⁵So I cry to you, Lord,
    declaring, “You are my refuge,
        my only^[a] possession while I am on this earth.”^[b]
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.
⁷Break me out of this prison,
    so I can give thanks to your name.
The righteous will surround me,
    for you will deal generously with me.
