Psalms 143
King James Version

1 Hear my prayer, O Lord,
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 shall no man living be justified.​

3
For the enemy hath persecuted my soul;
he hath smitten my life down to the ground;
he hath made me to dwell in darkness,
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 works;
I muse on the work of thy hands.​
6 I stretch forth my hands unto thee:
my soul thirsteth after thee, as a thirsty land. Selah.​

7 Hear me speedily, O Lord:
my spirit faileth:
hide not thy face from me,
lest I be like unto 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 Lord, 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 into the land of uprightness.​

11 Quicken me, O Lord, for thy name's sake:
for thy righteousness' sake bring my soul out of trouble.​
12 And of thy mercy cut off mine enemies,
and destroy all them that afflict my soul:
for I am thy servant.
