< Psalms 143 >

1 A Psalm of David. O LORD, hear my prayer. In Your faithfulness, give ear to my plea; in Your righteousness, answer me.
psalmus David quando filius eum persequebatur Domine exaudi orationem meam auribus percipe obsecrationem meam in veritate tua exaudi me in tua iustitia
2 Do not bring Your servant into judgment, for no one alive is righteous before You.
et non intres in iudicio cum servo tuo quia non iustificabitur in conspectu tuo omnis vivens
3 For the enemy has pursued my soul, crushing my life to the ground, making me dwell in darkness like those long since dead.
quia persecutus est inimicus animam meam humiliavit in terra vitam meam conlocavit me in obscuris sicut mortuos saeculi
4 My spirit grows faint within me; my heart is dismayed inside me.
et anxiatus est super me spiritus meus in me turbatum est cor meum
5 I remember the days of old; I meditate on all Your works; I consider the work of Your hands.
memor fui dierum antiquorum meditatus sum in omnibus operibus tuis in factis manuum tuarum meditabar
6 I stretch out my hands to You; my soul thirsts for You like a parched land.
expandi manus meas ad te anima mea sicut terra sine aqua tibi diapsalma
7 Answer me quickly, O LORD; my spirit fails. Do not hide Your face from me, or I will be like those who descend to the Pit.
velociter exaudi me Domine defecit spiritus meus non avertas faciem tuam a me et similis ero descendentibus in lacum
8 Let me hear Your loving devotion in the morning, for I have put my trust in You. Teach me the way I should walk, for to You I lift up my soul.
auditam mihi fac mane misericordiam tuam quia in te speravi notam fac mihi viam in qua ambulem quia ad te levavi animam meam
9 Deliver me from my enemies, O LORD; I flee to You for refuge.
eripe me de inimicis meis Domine ad te confugi
10 Teach me to do Your will, for You are my God. May Your good Spirit lead me on level ground.
doce me facere voluntatem tuam quia Deus meus es tu spiritus tuus bonus deducet me in terra recta
11 For the sake of Your name, O LORD, revive me. In Your righteousness, bring my soul out of trouble.
propter nomen tuum Domine vivificabis me in aequitate tua educes de tribulatione animam meam
12 And in Your loving devotion, cut off my enemies. Destroy all who afflict me, for I am Your servant.
et in misericordia tua disperdes inimicos meos et perdes omnes qui tribulant animam meam quoniam ego servus tuus sum
