Psalm 142:5-7

New International Version - UK

⁵ I cry to you, Lord;
    I say, ‘You are my refuge,
    my portion in the land of the living.’

⁶ Listen to my cry,
    for I am in desperate need;
rescue me from those who pursue me,
    for they are too strong for me.
⁷ Set me free from my prison,
    that I may praise your name.
Then the righteous will gather about me
    because of your goodness to me.
