I lift up my voice to the Lord

(1 Samuel 22:1-5; Psalm 57:1-11)
1
Yahweh, I cry out to you; I plead for you to help me.
2
I am bringing to you all my problems; I am telling you all my troubles.
3
When I am very discouraged, you know what I should do. Wherever I walk, it is as though my enemies have hidden traps for me to fall into.
4
I look around, but there is no one who sees me, no one who will protect me, and no one who cares about what happens to me.
5
So Yahweh, I cry out to you to help me; you are the one who protects me; you are all that I need while I am alive.
6
Listen to me while I cry out to you for help because I am very distressed. Rescue me because those who make me suffer are very strong; I cannot escape from them.
7
Free me from my troubles so that I may thank you. If you do that, when I am with others who live rightly, I will praise you for having been very good to me.

I lift up my voice to the Lord

(1 Samuel 22:1-5; Psalm 57:1-11)
1
I cry with my voice to the LORD. With my voice, I ask the LORD for mercy.
2
I pour out my complaint before him. I tell him my troubles.
3
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.
4
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.
5
I cried to you, LORD. I said, “You are my refuge, my portion in the land of the living.”
6
Listen to my cry, for I am in desperate need. Deliver me from my persecutors, for they are too strong for me.
7
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.
