[1] Hear my prayer, Yahweh. Listen to my petitions. In your
faithfulness and righteousness, relieve me. [2] Don`t enter into judgment
with your servant, For in your sight no man living is righteous. [3] For
the enemy pursues my soul. He has struck my life down to the ground.
He has made me live in dark places, as those who have been long dead. [4]
Therefore my spirit is overwhelmed within me. My heart within me is
desolate. [5] I remember the days of old. I meditate on all your doings.
I contemplate the work of your hands. [6] I spread forth my hands to
you. My soul thirsts for you, like a parched land. Selah. [7] Hurry to
answer me, Yahweh. My spirit fails. Don`t hide your face from me, So
that I don`t become like those who go down into the pit. [8] Cause me to
hear your lovingkindness in the morning, For I trust in you. Cause me to
know the way in which I should walk, For I lift up my soul to you. [9]
Deliver me, Yahweh, from my enemies. I flee to you to hide me. [10]
Teach me to do your will, For you are my God. Your Spirit is good.
Lead me in the land of uprightness. [11] Revive me, Yahweh, for your name`s
sake. In your righteousness, bring my soul out of trouble. [12] In your
lovingkindness, cut off my enemies, And destroy all those who afflict my
soul, For I am your servant. Psalm 144 By David.
