you either dont have enough power to your starter or a good ground or most likely a bad starter

you have a voltage drop across one of your connections. take a set of jummper cables use negitive to starter motor if no change use positive to relay battery side then the other then starter or use a meter and look for voltage drops across each connection should be no more than .2 volts drop .or if it will start take it to autozone they will check it for free
