< Psalms 143 >
1 Hear, O Lord, my prayer: give ear to my supplication in thy truth: hear me in thy justice.
psalmus David quando filius eum persequebatur Domine exaudi orationem meam auribus percipe obsecrationem meam in veritate tua exaudi me in tua iustitia
2 And enter not into judgment with thy servant: for in thy sight no man living shall be justified.
et non intres in iudicio cum servo tuo quia non iustificabitur in conspectu tuo omnis vivens
3 For the enemy hath persecuted my soul: he hath brought down my life to the earth. He hath made me to dwell in darkness as those that have been dead of old:
quia persecutus est inimicus animam meam humiliavit in terra vitam meam conlocavit me in obscuris sicut mortuos saeculi
4 And my spirit is in anguish within me: my heart within me is troubled.
et anxiatus est super me spiritus meus in me turbatum est cor meum
5 I remembered the days of old, I meditated on all thy works: I meditated upon the works of thy hands.
memor fui dierum antiquorum meditatus sum in omnibus operibus tuis in factis manuum tuarum meditabar
6 I stretched forth my hands to thee: my soul is as earth without water unto thee.
expandi manus meas ad te anima mea sicut terra sine aqua tibi diapsalma
7 Hear me speedily, O Lord: my spirit hath fainted away. Turn not away thy face from me, lest I be like unto them that go down into the pit.
velociter exaudi me Domine defecit spiritus meus non avertas faciem tuam a me et similis ero descendentibus in lacum
8 Cause me to hear thy mercy in the morning; for in thee have I hoped. Make the way known to me, wherein I should walk: for I have lifted up my soul to thee.
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, to thee have I fled:
eripe me de inimicis meis Domine ad te confugi
10 Teach me to do thy will, for thou art my God. Thy good spirit shall lead me into the right land:
doce me facere voluntatem tuam quia Deus meus es tu spiritus tuus bonus deducet me in terra recta
11 For thy name’s sake, O Lord, thou wilt quicken me in thy justice. Thou wilt bring my soul out of trouble:
propter nomen tuum Domine vivificabis me in aequitate tua educes de tribulatione animam meam
12 And in thy mercy thou wilt destroy my enemies. And thou wilt cut off all them that afflict my soul: for I am thy servant.
et in misericordia tua disperdes inimicos meos et perdes omnes qui tribulant animam meam quoniam ego servus tuus sum
