Psalm 143

Good News Translation GNT

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

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

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.

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

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

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

7 Answer me now, Lord! I have lost all hope. Don't hide yourself from me, or I will be among those who go down to the world of the dead.

8 Remind me each morning of your constant love, for I put my trust in you. My prayers go up to you; show me the way I should go.

9 I go to you for protection, Lord; rescue me from my enemies.

10 You are my God; teach me to do your will. Be good to me, and guide me on a safe path.

11 Rescue me, Lord, as you have promised; in your goodness save me from my troubles!

12 Because of your love for me, kill my enemies and destroy all my oppressors, for I am your servant.

1 <<A Psalm by David.>> 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.
