uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / doublet

אֶזְעַק֙ וַ⁠אֲשַׁוֵּ֔עַ

call (Some words not found in UHB: also/yet that/for/because/then/when call and,I_will_cry_for_help shuts_out prayer_of,my )

The terms I cry out and call for help mean similar things. The writer is using the two terms together for emphasis. If it would be clearer for your readers, you could express the emphasis with a single phrase. Alternate translation: [I desperately plead for help]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

שָׂתַ֖ם תְּפִלָּתִֽ⁠י

(Some words not found in UHB: also/yet that/for/because/then/when call and,I_will_cry_for_help shuts_out prayer_of,my )

Here the writer is speaking of his prayer as if it were a physical object that God shuts out or blocks. Your language may have a comparable expression that you can use in your translation, or you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [he refuses to hear my plea]

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.

Acknowledgements: The Hebrew text, lemmas, and morphology are all thanks to the OSHB and some of the glosses are from Macula Hebrew.
