143:1 A Psalm of David. Hear my prayer, O Lord, give ear to my supplications; in Your faithfulness answer me, and in Your righteousness.
143:2 Enter not into judgment with Your servant, for in Your sight no one living is righteous.
143:3 For the enemy has persecuted my soul; he has crushed my life down to the ground; he has made me to dwell in darkness, as those who have been long dead.
143:4 Therefore my spirit is overwhelmed within me; my heart within me is desolate.
143:5 I remember the days of old; I meditate on all Your works; I consider the work of Your hands.
143:6 I stretch forth my hands unto You; my soul thirsts after You as a thirsty land. Selah
143:7 Respond to me quickly, O Lord, my spirit fails; do not hide Your face from me, lest I be like those who go down into the pit.
143:8 Cause me to hear Your lovingkindness in the morning; for in You I have my trust; cause me to know the way I should walk, for I lift up my soul unto You.
143:9 Deliver me, O Lord, from my enemies; I flee unto You for my protection.
143:10 Teach me to do Your will, for You are my God; may Your good spirit lead me onto level ground.
143:11 Revive me, O Lord, for Your name’s sake, for Your righteousness’ sake bring my soul out of trouble.
143:12 In Your mercy cut off my enemies, and destroy all them who afflict my soul, for I am Your servant.
