“I cry to you!
Yahweh!
I say.
‘You are my refuge.
You are my portion
In the land of the living.’
Give heed to my cry!
I am brought very low!”
The response of David to his loneliness is to cry to Yahweh. He said that Yahweh was his refuge and portion in the land of the living. He wanted Yahweh to pay attention to his cry because he had been brought low.
