1 I cry aloud to the Lord; I plead aloud to the Lord for mercy.
2 I pour out my complaint before Him;I reveal my trouble to Him.
3 Although my spirit is weak within me,You know my way. Along this path I travelthey have hidden a trap for me.
4 Look to the right and see: no one stands up for me;there is no refuge for me;no one cares about me.
5 I cry to You, Lord;I say, “You are my shelter,my portion in the land of the living.”
