Psalm 142:5-7

Modern English Version

⁵ I cried unto You, O Lord;
    I said, “You are my refuge
    and my portion in the land of the living.”

⁶ Attend to my cry,
    for I am brought very low;
deliver me from my persecutors,
    for they are stronger than me.
⁷ Bring my soul out of prison,
    that I may praise Your name;
the righteous shall surround me,
    for You shall deal bountifully with me.
