When ·I am afraid [I am depressed; L my spirit is faint],
    you, Lord, know ·the way out [L my way].
In the path where I walk,
    ·a trap is hidden [L they have hidden a trap] for me.
Look ·around me [L at/on my right hand] and see.
    No one cares about me.
·I have no place of safety [L A place of refuge perishes from me];
    no one ·cares if I live [L seeks for my soul].

Lord, I cry out to you.
    I say, “You are my ·protection [refuge].
    ·You are all I want in this life [L …my portion in the land of the living].”
