NIV Parallel NASB [BSB CSB ESV HCS KJV ISV NAS NET NIV NLT HEB]
New International VersionNew American Standard Bible 1995
1A maskil of David. When he was in the cave. A prayer. I cry aloud to the LORD; I lift up my voice to the LORD for mercy.1Maskil of David, when he was in the cave. A Prayer. I cry aloud with my voice to the LORD; I make supplication with my voice to the LORD.
2I pour out before him my complaint; before him I tell my trouble.2I pour out my complaint before Him; I declare my trouble before Him.
3When my spirit grows faint within me, it is you who watch over my way. In the path where I walk people have hidden a snare for me.3When my spirit was overwhelmed within me, You knew my path. In the way where I walk They have hidden a trap for me.
4Look and see, there is no one at my right hand; no one is concerned for me. I have no refuge; no one cares for my life.4Look to the right and see; For there is no one who regards me; There is no escape for me; No one cares for my soul.
5I cry to you, LORD; I say, "You are my refuge, my portion in the land of the living."5I cried out to You, O LORD; I said, "You are my refuge, My portion in the land of the living.
6Listen to my cry, for I am in desperate need; rescue me from those who pursue me, for they are too strong for me.6"Give heed to my cry, For I am brought very low; Deliver me from my persecutors, For they are too strong for me.
7Set me free from my prison, that I may praise your name. Then the righteous will gather about me because of your goodness to me.7"Bring my soul out of prison, So that I may give thanks to Your name; The righteous will surround me, For You will deal bountifully with me."
