Psalms 143
1 [A Psalm by David.] Hear my prayer, YHWH. Listen to my petitions. In your faithfulness and righteousness, relieve 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 enter into judgment with your servant, for in your sight no man living is righteous.
et non intres in iudicio cum servo tuo quia non iustificabitur in conspectu tuo omnis vivens
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.
quia persecutus est inimicus animam meam humiliavit in terra vitam meam conlocavit me in obscuris sicut mortuos saeculi
4 Therefore my spirit is 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 your doings. I contemplate the work of your hands.
memor fui dierum antiquorum meditatus sum in omnibus operibus tuis in factis manuum tuarum meditabar
6 I spread forth my hands to you. My soul thirsts for you, like a parched land. (Selah)
expandi manus meas ad te anima mea sicut terra sine aqua tibi diapsalma
7 Hurry to answer me, YHWH. My spirit fails. Do not hide your face from me, so that I do not become like those who 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 your loving kindness 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.
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, YHWH, from my enemies. I run 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. Your Spirit is good. Lead me in the land of uprightness.
doce me facere voluntatem tuam quia Deus meus es tu spiritus tuus bonus deducet me in terra recta
11 Revive me, YHWH, for your name's sake. In your righteousness, bring my soul out of trouble.
propter nomen tuum Domine vivificabis me in aequitate tua educes de tribulatione animam meam
12 In your loving kindness, cut off my enemies, and destroy all those who afflict my soul, For I am your servant.
et in misericordia tua disperdes inimicos meos et perdes omnes qui tribulant animam meam quoniam ego servus tuus sum
