1
מַשְׂכִּ֥יל לְדָוִ֑ד בִּהְיֹותֹ֖ו בַמְּעָרָ֣ה תְפִלָּֽה׃
A contemplation by David, when he was in the cave. A Prayer. I cry with my voice to Yahweh. With my voice, I ask Yahweh for mercy.
2
קֹ֭ולִי אֶל־יְהוָ֣ה אֶזְעָ֑ק קֹ֝ולִ֗י אֶל־יְהוָ֥ה אֶתְחַנָּֽן׃
I pour out my complaint before him. I tell him my troubles.
3
אֶשְׁפֹּ֣ךְ לְפָנָ֣יו שִׂיחִ֑י צָ֝רָתִ֗י לְפָנָ֥יו אַגִּֽיד׃
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
בְּהִתְעַטֵּ֬ף עָלַ֨י ׀ רוּחִ֗י וְאַתָּה֮ יָדַ֪עְתָּ נְֽתִיבָ֫תִ֥י בְּאֹֽרַח־ז֥וּ אֲהַלֵּ֑ךְ טָמְנ֖וּ פַ֣ח לִֽי׃
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
הַבֵּ֤יט יָמִ֨ין ׀ וּרְאֵה֮ וְאֵֽין־לִ֪י מַ֫כִּ֥יר אָבַ֣ד מָנֹ֣וס מִמֶּ֑נִּי אֵ֖ין דֹּורֵ֣שׁ לְנַפְשִֽׁי׃
I cried to you, Yahweh. I said, “You are my refuge, my portion in the land of the living.”
6
זָעַ֥קְתִּי אֵלֶ֗יךָ יְה֫וָ֥ה אָ֭מַרְתִּי אַתָּ֣ה מַחְסִ֑י חֶ֝לְקִ֗י בְּאֶ֣רֶץ הַֽחַיִּים׃
Listen to my cry, for I am in desperate need. deliver me from my persecutors, For they are stronger than me.
7
הַקְשִׁ֤יבָה ׀ אֶֽל־רִנָּתִי֮ כִּֽי־דַלֹּ֪ותִ֫י מְאֹ֥ד הַצִּילֵ֥נִי מֵרֹדְפַ֑י כִּ֖י אָמְצ֣וּ מִמֶּֽנִּי׃
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.
8
הֹ֘וצִ֤יאָה מִמַּסְגֵּ֨ר ׀ נַפְשִׁי֮ לְהֹודֹ֪ות אֶת־שְׁ֫מֶ֥ךָ בִּ֭י יַכְתִּ֣רוּ צַדִּיקִ֑ים כִּ֖י תִגְמֹ֣ל עָלָֽי׃
