Psalms 143:1-6

WBT

NIV

1 A Psalm of David. Hear my prayer, O LORD, give ear to my supplications: in thy faithfulness answer me, [and] in thy righteousness.
1 LORD, hear my prayer, listen to my cry for mercy; in your faithfulness and righteousness come to my relief.
2 And enter not into judgment with thy servant: for in thy sight shall no man living be justified.
2 Do not bring your servant into judgment, for no one living is righteous before you.
3 For the enemy hath persecuted my soul; he hath smitten my life down to the ground; he hath made me to dwell in darkness, as those that have been long 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 is my spirit overwhelmed within me; my heart within me is desolate.
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 thy works; I muse on the work of thy hands.
5 I remember the days of long ago; I meditate on all your works and consider what your hands have done.
6 I stretch forth my hands to thee: my soul [thirsteth] after thee, as a thirsty land. Selah.
6 I spread out my hands to you; I thirst for you like a parched land.
