Psm143:1 Hear my prayer, O Jehovah; Give ear to my supplications: In thy faithfulness answer me, [and] in thy righteousness.
Psm143:2 And enter not into judgment with thy servant; For in thy sight no man living is righteous.
Psm143:3 For the enemy hath persecuted my soul; He hath smitten my life down to the ground: He hath made me to dwell in dark places, as those that have been long dead.
Psm143:4 Therefore is my spirit overwhelmed within me; My heart within me is desolate.
Psm143:5 I remember the days of old; I meditate on all thy doings; I muse on the work of thy hands.
Psm143:6 I spread forth my hands unto thee: My soul [thirsteth] after thee, as a weary land. [Selah]
Psm143:7 Make haste to answer me, O Jehovah; My spirit faileth: Hide not thy face from me, Lest I become like them that go down into the pit.
Psm143:8 Cause me to hear thy lovingkindness in the morning; For in thee do I trust: Cause me to know the way wherein I should walk; For I lift up my soul unto thee.
Psm143:9 Deliver me, O Jehovah, from mine enemies: I flee unto thee to hide me.
Psm143:10 Teach me to do thy will; For thou art my God: Thy Spirit is good; Lead me in the land of uprightness.
Psm143:11 Quicken me, O Jehovah, for thy name's sake: In thy righteousness bring my soul out of trouble.
Psm143:12 And in thy lovingkindness cut off mine enemies, And destroy all them that afflict my soul; For I am thy servant.
