"And my spirit has been in anguish over me. My heart within me has been disturbed. "
— Psalms 142:4, Catholic Public Domain Version
“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.”
“Look onmy right hand, and see; For there is no man that knoweth me: Refuge hath failed me; No man careth for my soul. ”
“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.”
“Look to the right and see! No one cares about me. I have nowhere to run; no one is concerned about my life.”
“And my spirit is in anguish within me: my heart within me is troubled.”
“Looking to my right side, I saw no man who was my friend: I had no safe place; no one had any care for my soul.”
“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.”
A Psalm of David, when his son Absalom was pursuing him. O Lord, hear my prayer. Incline your ear to my supplication in your truth. Heed me according to your justice.
And do not enter into judgment with your servant. For all the living will not be justified in your sight.
For the enemy has pursued my soul. He has lowered my life to the earth. He has stationed me in darkness, like the dead of ages past.
And my spirit has been in anguish over me. My heart within me has been disturbed.
I have called to mind the days of antiquity. I have been meditating on all your works. I have meditated on the workings of your hands.
I have extended my hands to you. My soul is like a land without water before you.
O Lord, heed me quickly. My spirit has grown faint. Do not turn your face away from me, lest I become like those who descend into the pit.
