< Psalms 143 >
1 A Psalm of David. Hear my prayer, O LORD, give ear to my supplications: in thy faithfulness answer me, [and] in thy righteousness.
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 shall no man living 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 smitten my life down to the ground; he hath made me to dwell in darkness, as those that have been long dead.
quia persecutus est inimicus animam meam humiliavit in terra vitam meam conlocavit me in obscuris sicut mortuos saeculi
4 Therefore is my spirit overwhelmed within me; my heart within me is desolate.
et anxiatus est super me spiritus meus in me turbatum est cor meum
5 I remember the days of old; I meditate on all thy works; I muse on the work of thy hands.
memor fui dierum antiquorum meditatus sum in omnibus operibus tuis in factis manuum tuarum meditabar
6 I stretch forth my hands unto thee: my soul [thirsteth] after thee, as a thirsty land. (Selah)
expandi manus meas ad te anima mea sicut terra sine aqua tibi diapsalma
7 Hear me speedily, O LORD: my spirit faileth: hide not 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 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.
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, O LORD, from mine enemies: I flee unto thee to hide me.
eripe me de inimicis meis Domine ad te confugi
10 Teach me to do thy will; for thou [art] my God: thy spirit [is] good; lead me into the land of uprightness.
doce me facere voluntatem tuam quia Deus meus es tu spiritus tuus bonus deducet me in terra recta
11 Quicken me, O LORD, for thy name’s sake: for thy righteousness’ sake bring my soul out of trouble.
propter nomen tuum Domine vivificabis me in aequitate tua educes de tribulatione animam meam
12 And of thy mercy cut off mine enemies, and destroy 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
