Psalms 143

Hear my prayer, O LORD,
Give ear to my supplications!
Answer me in Your faithfulness, in Your righteousness!

Psalm 143
A psalm of David.

Lord, hear my prayer,
listen to my cry for mercy;
in your faithfulness and righteousness
come to my relief.

And do not enter into judgment with Your servant,
For in Your sight no man living is righteous.

Do not bring your servant into judgment,
for no one living is righteous before you.

For the enemy has persecuted my soul;
He has crushed my life to the ground;
He has made me dwell in dark places, like those who have long been dead.

The enemy pursues me,
he crushes me to the ground;
he makes me dwell in the darkness
like those long dead.

Therefore my spirit is overwhelmed within me;
My heart is appalled within me.

So my spirit grows faint within me;
my heart within me is dismayed.

I remember the days of old;
I meditate on all Your doings;
I muse on the work of Your hands.

I remember the days of long ago;
I meditate on all your works
and consider what your hands have done.

I stretch out my hands to You;
My soul longs for You, as a parched land.

Selah.

Answer me quickly, O LORD, my spirit fails;
Do not hide Your face from me,
Or I will become like those who go down to the pit.

Let me hear Your lovingkindness in the morning;
For I trust in You;
Teach me the way in which I should walk;
For to You I lift up my soul.

Deliver me, O LORD, from my enemies;
I take refuge in You.

Teach me to do Your will,
For You are my God;
Let Your good Spirit lead me on level ground.

For the sake of Your name, O LORD, revive me.
In Your righteousness bring my soul out of trouble.

And in Your lovingkindness, cut off my enemies
And destroy all those who afflict my soul,
For I am Your servant.

I spread out my hands to you;
I thirst for you like a parched land.a

Answer me quickly, O LORD, my spirit fails;
Do not hide Your face from me,
Or I will become like those who go down to the pit.

Answer me quickly, Lord;
my spirit fails.
Do not hide your face from me
or I will be like those who go down to the pit.

Let me hear Your lovingkindness in the morning;
For I trust in You;
Teach me the way in which I should walk;
For to You I lift up my soul.

Let the morning bring me word of your unfailing love,
for I have put my trust in you.
Show me the way I should go,
for to you I entrust my life.

Deliver me, O LORD, from my enemies;
I take refuge in You.

Rescue me from my enemies, Lord,
for I hide myself in you.

Teach me to do Your will,
For You are my God;
Let Your good Spirit lead me on level ground.

Teach me to do your will,
for you are my God;
may your good Spirit
lead me on level ground.

For the sake of Your name, O LORD, revive me.
In Your righteousness bring my soul out of trouble.

For your name’s sake, Lord, preserve my life;
in your righteousness, bring me out of trouble.

And in Your lovingkindness, cut off my enemies
And destroy all those who afflict my soul,
For I am Your servant.

In your unfailing love, silence my enemies;
destroy all my foes,
for I am your servant.
