Psalm 143:1-6

NLT

NIV

1 Hear my prayer, O LORD ; listen to my plea! Answer me because you are faithful and righteous.
1 LORD, hear my prayer, listen to my cry for mercy; in your faithfulness and righteousness come to my relief.
2 Don’t put your servant on trial, for no one is innocent before you.
2 Do not bring your servant into judgment, for no one living is righteous before you.
3 My enemy has chased me. He has knocked me to the ground and forces me to live in darkness like those in the grave.
3 The enemy pursues me, he crushes me to the ground; he makes me dwell in the darkness like those long dead.
4 I am losing all hope; I am paralyzed with fear.
4 So my spirit grows faint within me; my heart within me is dismayed.
5 I remember the days of old. I ponder all your great works and think about what you have done.
5 I remember the days of long ago; I meditate on all your works and consider what your hands have done.
6 I lift my hands to you in prayer. I thirst for you as parched land thirsts for rain. Interlude
6 I spread out my hands to you; I thirst for you like a parched land.
