NASB Bible

Psalms 143

A Psalm of David.

1

Hear my prayer, O LORD,  aGive ear to my supplications! Answer me in Your  bfaithfulness, in Your  crighteousness!

2

And  ado not enter into judgment with Your servant, For in Your sight  bno man living is righteous.

3

For the enemy has persecuted my soul; He has crushed my life  ato the ground; He  bhas made me dwell in dark places, like those who have long been dead.

4

Therefore  amy spirit  1is overwhelmed within me; My heart is  2 bappalled within me.

5

I  aremember the days of old; I  bmeditate on all Your doings; I  cmuse on the work of Your hands.

6

I  astretch out my hands to You; My  bsoul longs for You, as a  1parched land.  2Selah.

7

 aAnswer me quickly, O LORD, my  bspirit fails;  cDo not hide Your face from me, Or I will become like  dthose who go down to the pit.

8

Let me hear Your  alovingkindness  bin the morning; For I trust  cin You; Teach me the  dway in which I should walk; For to You I  elift up my soul.

9

 aDeliver me, O LORD, from my enemies;  1I take refuge in You.

10

 aTeach me to do Your will, For You are my God; Let  bYour good Spirit  clead me on level  1ground.

11

 aFor the sake of Your name, O LORD,  brevive me.  cIn Your righteousness bring my soul out of trouble.

12

And in Your lovingkindness,  1 acut off my enemies And  bdestroy all those who afflict my soul, For  cI am Your servant.
