| # Chapter 143
#### 1 | 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. Psalm 144 By David.
