1 I cried unto the Lord with my voice;with my voice unto the Lord did I make my supplication.
2 I poured out my complaint before him;I showed before him my trouble.
3 When my spirit was overwhelmed within me,then thou knewest my path.In the way wherein I walkedhave they privily laid a snare for me.
4 I looked on my right hand, and beheld,but there was no man that would know me:refuge failed me;no man cared for my soul.
5 I cried unto thee, O Lord:I said, Thou art my refuge and my portion in the land of the living.
