A prayer that calls the LORD refuge and portion
여호와를 피난처와 분깃이라 하는 기도
Psalm 142:1–7: the speaker (“I”) says, “I cry with my voice to the LORD. With my voice, I ask the LORD for mercy. I pour out my complaint before him. I tell him my troubles. When my spirit was overwhelmed within me, you knew my route. On the path in which I walk, they have hidden a snare for me. Look on my right, and see; for there is no one who is concerned for me. Refuge has fled from me. No one cares for my soul.” The speaker goes on, “I cried to you, LORD. I said, ‘You are my refuge, my portion in the land of the living.’” and asks, “Listen to my cry, for I am in desperate need. Deliver me from my persecutors, for they are too strong for me. Bring my soul out of prison, that I may give thanks to your name. The righteous will surround me, for you will be good to me.” The Korean Revised Version reads at 142:4 나를 아는 자도 없고 피난처도 없고, where WEB reads “for there is no one who is concerned for me. Refuge has fled from me.” WEB opens 142:1 with the title “A contemplation by David, when he was in the cave. A Prayer.”; the Korean Revised Version text this collection holds has no title in 142:1.
