1. Hear my prayer, O LORD; give ear to my pleas for mercy! In your faithfulness answer me, in your righteousness!
|
|||
|
<a id="2" name="2"></a>
|
|||
|
2. Enter not into judgment with your servant, for no one living is righteous before you.

|
|||
|
3. For the enemy has pursued my soul; he has crushed my life to the ground; he has made me sit in darkness like those long dead.
|
|||
|
<a id="4" name="4"></a>
|
|||
|
4. Therefore my spirit faints within me; my heart within me is appalled.
|
|||
|
<a id="5" name="5"></a>
|
|||
|
5. I remember the days of old; I meditate on all that you have done; I ponder the work of your hands.
|
|||
|

|
|||
|
6. I stretch out my hands to you; my soul thirsts for you like a parched land. Selah

|
|||
|
7. Answer me quickly, O LORD! My spirit fails! Hide not your face from me, lest I be like those who go down to the pit.
|
|||
|
<a id="8" name="8"></a>
|
|||
|
8. Let me hear in the morning of your steadfast love, for in you I trust. Make me know the way I should go, for to you I lift up my soul.
|
|||
|
<a id="9" name="9"></a>
|
|||
|
9. Deliver me from my enemies, O LORD! I have fled to you for refuge.
|
|||
|
<a id="10" name="10"></a>
|
|||
|
10. Teach me to do your will, for you are my God! Let your good Spirit lead me on level ground!
|
|||
|
<a id="11" name="11"></a>
|
|||
|
11. For your name’s sake, O LORD, preserve my life! In your righteousness bring my soul out of trouble!
|
|||
|
<a id="12" name="12"></a>
|
|||
|
12. And in your steadfast love you will cut off my enemies, and you will destroy all the adversaries of my soul, for I am your servant.
