My cry goes to God! Indeed, I cry to God for help, and for him to listen to me.
KJV

I cried unto God with my voice,.... Which is to be understood of prayer, and that vocal, and which is importunate and fervent, being made in distress; see
Psa 3:4
, or "my voice was unto God" (h), "and I cried"; it was directed to him, and expressed in a very loud and clamorous way:
even unto God with my voice; or "my voice was unto God"; which is repeated to show that he prayed again and again, with great eagerness and earnestness, his case being a very afflicted one:
and he gave ear unto me; his prayer was not without success; God is a God hearing and answering prayer, according to his promise,
Psa 50:15
.
(h) "vox mea ad Deum", Pagninus, Montanus, Musculus, "fertur", Junius & Tremellius; "erat", Cocceius.
