A psalm of David, regarding his experience in the cave. A prayer.
I cry out to the LORD; I plead for the LORD's mercy.
I pour out my complaints before him and tell him all my troubles.
For I am overwhelmed, and you alone know the way I should turn.
Wherever I go, my enemies have set traps for me.
I look for someone to come and help me, but no one gives me a passing
thought!
No one will help me; no one cares a bit what happens to me.
Then I pray to you, O LORD. I say, "You are my place of
refuge. You are all I really want in life.
Hear my cry, for I am very low. Rescue me from my persecutors, for they
are too strong for me.
Bring me out of prison so I can thank you. The godly will crowd around
me, for you treat me kindly."
