Psalms 143:1-6

NKJV

NIV

1 A Psalm of David. Hear my prayer, O Lord, Give ear to my supplications! In Your faithfulness answer me, And in Your righteousness.
1 LORD, hear my prayer, listen to my cry for mercy; in your faithfulness and righteousness come to my relief.
2 Do not enter into judgment with Your servant, For in Your sight no one living is righteous.
2 Do not bring your servant into judgment, for no one living is righteous before you.
3 For the enemy has persecuted my soul; He has crushed my life to the ground; He has made me dwell in darkness, Like those who have long been dead.
3 The enemy pursues me, he crushes me to the ground; he makes me dwell in the darkness like those long dead.
4 Therefore my spirit is overwhelmed within me; My heart within me is distressed.
4 So my spirit grows faint within me; my heart within me is dismayed.
5 I remember the days of old; I meditate on all Your works; I muse on the work of Your hands.
5 I remember the days of long ago; I meditate on all your works and consider what your hands have done.
6 I spread out my hands to You; My soul longs for You like a thirsty land. Selah
6 I spread out my hands to you; I thirst for you like a parched land.
