2And I poured before him my supplication and have shown before him my affliction.

3When my spirit was troubled, you knew my path; in the way of my steps they have hidden snares for me.

4I looked to the right and I saw there was none to advise me; a place of refuge was lost to me and there was no avenger for my soul.

5I cried to you, LORD JEHOVAH, and I have said:" You are my hope and my portion in the land of life."

6Give ear to my request because I have been very humbled; save me from my persecutors, because they are stronger than I.

7Bring my soul out from prison, for I shall praise your Name and your righteous ones will wait for me when you reward me.
