| 1. | Of understanding for David. A prayer when he was in the cave. |
| 2. | I cried to the Lord with my voice: with my voice I made supplication to the Lord. |
| 3. | In his sight I pour out my prayer, and before him I declare my trouble: |
| 4. | When my spirit failed me, then thou newest my paths. |
| 5. | I looked on my right hand, and beheld, and there was no one that would know me. Flight hath failed me: and there is no one that hath regard to my soul. |
| 6. | I cried to thee, O Lord: I said: Thou art my hope, my portion in the land of the living. |
| 7. | Attend to my supplication: for I am brought very low. Deliver me from my persecutors; for they are stronger than I. |
| 8. | Bring my soul out of prison, that I may praise thy name: the just wait for me, until thou reward me. |
