Although I am innocent, I could not answer him; I could only plead with my judge for mercy.
I summon my servant, but he does not respond, even though I implore him with my own mouth.
To you, O Lord, I cried out; I begged the Lord for mercy:
A well-written song by David, when he was in the cave; a prayer. To the Lord I cry out; to the Lord I plead for mercy.
