Chapter 143

1


 

  Hear my prayer, O Jehovah; give ear to my supplications: In thy faithfulness answer me, [and] in thy righteousness.  

 

 


2


 

  And enter not into judgment with thy servant; For in thy sight no man living is righteous.  

 

 


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.  

 

 


4


 

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

 

 


5


 

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

 

 


6


 

  I spread forth my hands unto thee: My soul [thirsteth] after thee, as a weary land. Selah  

 

 


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.  

 

 


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.  

 

 


9


 

  Deliver me, O Jehovah, from mine enemies: I flee unto thee to hide me.  

 

 


10


 

  Teach me to do thy will; For thou art my God: Thy Spirit is good; Lead me in the land of uprightness.  

 

 


11


 

  Quicken me, O Jehovah, for thy name's sake: In thy righteousness bring my soul out of trouble.  

 

 


12


 

  And in thy lovingkindness cut off mine enemies, And destroy all them that afflict my soul; For I am thy servant. Psalm 144 [A Psalm] of David.
