Psalms 143:1-6

1 Lord, hear my prayer! In your righteousness listen to my plea; answer me in your faithfulness!

1 LORD, hear my prayer, listen to my cry for mercy; in your faithfulness and righteousness come to my relief.

2 Don't put me, your servant, on trial; no one is innocent in your sight.

2 Do not bring your servant into judgment, for no one living is righteous before you.

3 My enemies have hunted me down and completely defeated me. They have put me in a dark prison, and I am like those who died long ago.

3 The enemy pursues me, he crushes me to the ground; he makes me dwell in the darkness like those long dead.

4 So I am ready to give up; I am in deep despair.

4 So my spirit grows faint within me; my heart within me is dismayed.

5 I remember the days gone by; I think about all that you have done, I bring to mind all your deeds.

5 I remember the days of long ago; I meditate on all your works and consider what your hands have done.

6 I lift up my hands to you in prayer; like dry ground my soul is thirsty for you.

6 I spread out my hands to you; I thirst for you like a parched land.
