Psalms 142:4
Compare all
2 I pour out my complaint before Him;
I declare before Him my trouble.
3 When my spirit1 was aoverwhelmed within me,
Then You knew my path.
In the way in which I walk
They have secretly bset a snare for me. 
4 Look on my right hand and see,
For there is no one who acknowledges me;
Refuge has failed me;
No one cares for my soul.
5 I cried out to You, O Lord:
I said, “You are my refuge,
My portion in the land of the living.
6 1Attend to my cry,
For I am brought very low;
Deliver me from my persecutors,
For they are stronger than I. 
7 Bring my soul out of prison,
That I may apraise Your name;
The righteous shall surround me,
For You shall deal bountifully with me.”

Psalms 142:4

There was no man, that would know me - This has been applied to the time in which our Lord was deserted by his disciples. As to the case of David in the cave of En-gedi, he had no refuge: for what were the handful of men that were with him to Saul and his army?
