 katapi NEW STUDY BIBLEPsalms:142 Biblia Hebraica (Stuttgartensia) | BHS (pdf - 3.5mb)  

[A Maskil of David, when he was in the cave. A Prayer.] I Call to the Lord for Help. Psalm 142(v141)מַשְׂכִּיל לְדָוִד בִּהְיֹותֹו בַמְּעָרָה תְפִלָּה׃
1 I cry with my voice to Yahweh,
with my voice I make supplication to Yahweh,
 קֹולִי אֶל־יְהוָה אֶזְעָק קֹולִי אֶל־יְהוָה אֶתְחַןָּן׃
2 I pour out my complaint before him,
I tell my trouble before him.
 אֶשְׁפֹּךְ לְפָנָיו שִׂיחִי צָרָתִי לְפָנָיו אַגִּיד׃
3 When my spirit is faint, you know my way!

In the path where I walk they have hidden a trap for me.

 בְּהִתְעַטֵּף עָלַי רוּחִי וְאַתָּה יָדַעְתָּ נְתִיבָתִי בְּאֹרַח־זוּ אֲהַלֵּךְ טָמְנוּ פַח לִי׃
4 I look to the right and watch, but there is none who takes notice of me;
no refuge remains to me, no man cares for me.
 הַבֵּיט יָמִין וּרְאֵה וְאֵין־לִי מַכִּיר אָבַד מָנֹוס מִמֶּנִּי אֵין דֹּורֵשׁ לְנַפְשִׁי׃
5 I cry to you, O Yahweh;
I say, You are my refuge,
my portion in the land of the living.
 זָעַקְתִּי אֵלֶיךָ יְהוָה אָמַרְתִּי אַתָּה מַחְסִי חֶלְקִי בְּאֶרֶץ הַחַיִּים׃
6 Give heed to my cry;
for I am brought very low!

Deliver me from my persecutors;
for they are too strong for me!

 הַקְשִׁיבָה אֶל־רִנָּתִי כִּי־דַלֹּותִי מְאֹד הַצִּילֵנִי מֵרֹדְפַי כִּי אָמְצוּ מִמֶּנִּי׃
7 Bring me out of prison,
that I may give thanks to your name!
The righteous will surround me;
for you will deal bountifully with me.
 הֹוצִיאָה מִמַּסְגֵּר נַפְשִׁי לְהֹודֹות אֶת־שְׁמֶךָ בִּי יַכְתִּרוּ צַדִּיקִים כִּי תִגְמֹל עָלָי׃

Notes: This webpage enables you to select-a-version from the Bible versions held on the katapi bible database.
The katapi NEW STUDY BIBLE is a very light revision of the RSV. The changes are: (1) In places where 'the LORD', 'O LORD' occurs in the RSV, (it represents the tetragrammaton - YHWH - which is in the hebrew text), I have printed 'YHWH' in black. The later vowel sounds I have shown in the colour gray;
(2) I have removed the quotation marks and hyphens that were used in so many names in the RSV as an aid to correct pronunciation. This now brings it in line with all other English versions, and makes any word-search more accurate.
(3) I have changed all (I hope!) of the RSV archaic language sections to modern.

The katapi New Study Bible reference section displays links to parallel passages, and to direct quotations by New Testament authors to Old Testament passages. Quotations of OT passages by NT authors can in most cases be viewed within their context of the OT passage as a whole, with the quoted text displayed, against a subdued background.
