- 1Hear my prayer, O Jehovah; give ear to my supplications: In thy faithfulness answer me, [and] in thy righteousness.
- 2And enter not into judgment with thy servant; For in thy sight no man living is righteous.
- 3For the enemy hath persecuted my soul; He hath smitten my life down to the ground: He hath made me to dwell in dark places, as those that have been long dead.
- 4Therefore is my spirit overwhelmed within me; My heart within me is desolate.
- 5I remember the days of old; I meditate on all thy doings; I muse on the work of thy hands.
- 6I spread forth my hands unto thee: My soul [thirsteth] after thee, as a weary land. Selah
- 7Make haste to answer me, O Jehovah; my spirit faileth: Hide not thy face from me, Lest I become like them that go down into the pit.
- 8Cause me to hear thy lovingkindness in the morning; For in thee do I trust: Cause me to know the way wherein I should walk; For I lift up my soul unto thee.
- 9Deliver me, O Jehovah, from mine enemies: I flee unto thee to hide me.
- 10Teach me to do thy will; For thou art my God: Thy Spirit is good; Lead me in the land of uprightness.
- 11Quicken me, O Jehovah, for thy name`s sake: In thy righteousness bring my soul out of trouble.
- 12And in thy lovingkindness cut off mine enemies, And destroy all them that afflict my soul; For I am thy servant. Psalm 144 [A Psalm] of David.
