< Psalms 143 >

1 A psalm of David O Yahweh - hear prayer my give ear! to supplications my in faithfulness your answer me in righteousness your.
מִזְמוֹר לְדָוִד יְהֹוָה ׀ שְׁמַע תְּפִלָּתִי הַאֲזִינָה אֶל־תַּחֲנוּנַי בֶּאֱמֻנָֽתְךָ עֲנֵנִי בְּצִדְקָתֶֽךָ׃
2 And may not you go in judgment with servant your for not he is righteous before you any living [person].
וְאַל־תָּבוֹא בְמִשְׁפָּט אֶת־עַבְדֶּךָ כִּי לֹֽא־יִצְדַּק לְפָנֶיךָ כׇל־חָֽי׃
3 For he has pursued an enemy - self my he has crushed to the ground life my he has caused to dwell me in dark places like dead [people] of antiquity.
כִּי רָדַף אוֹיֵב ׀ נַפְשִׁי דִּכָּא לָאָרֶץ חַיָּתִי הוֹשִׁבַנִי בְמַחֲשַׁכִּים כְּמֵתֵי עוֹלָֽם׃
4 And it has fainted away on me spirit my in [the] midst of me it is appalled heart my.
וַתִּתְעַטֵּף עָלַי רוּחִי בְּתוֹכִי יִשְׁתּוֹמֵם לִבִּֽי׃
5 I have remembered days - from antiquity I have meditated on every deed your on [the] work of hands your I meditate.
זָכַרְתִּי יָמִים ׀ מִקֶּדֶם הָגִיתִי בְכׇל־פׇּעֳלֶךָ בְּֽמַעֲשֵׂה יָדֶיךָ אֲשׂוֹחֵֽחַ׃
6 I have spread out hands my to you throat my - like a land exhausted [is] to you (Selah)
פֵּרַשְׂתִּי יָדַי אֵלֶיךָ נַפְשִׁי ׀ כְּאֶרֶץ־עֲיֵפָה לְךָ סֶֽלָה׃
7 Hurry answer me - O Yahweh it is exhausted spirit my may not you hide face your from me and I will be equal with [those who] go down of [the] pit.
מַהֵר עֲנֵנִי ׀ יְהֹוָה כָּלְתָה רוּחִי אַל־תַּסְתֵּר פָּנֶיךָ מִמֶּנִּי וְנִמְשַׁלְתִּי עִם־יֹרְדֵי בֽוֹר׃
8 Make hear me in the morning - covenant loyalty your for in you I have trusted make known to me [the] way which I will go for to you I lift up desire my.
הַשְׁמִיעֵנִי בַבֹּקֶר ׀ חַסְדֶּךָ כִּֽי־בְךָ בָטָחְתִּי הוֹדִיעֵנִי דֶּֽרֶךְ־זוּ אֵלֵךְ כִּי־אֵלֶיךָ נָשָׂאתִי נַפְשִֽׁי׃
9 Deliver me from enemies my - O Yahweh to you I have covered.
הַצִּילֵנִי מֵאֹיְבַי ׀ יְהֹוָה אֵלֶיךָ כִסִּֽתִי׃
10 Teach me - to do will your for you [are] God my spirit your good may it lead me in a land of level ground.
לַמְּדֵנִי ׀ לַעֲשׂוֹת רְצוֹנֶךָ כִּֽי־אַתָּה אֱלוֹהָי רוּחֲךָ טוֹבָה תַּנְחֵנִי בְּאֶרֶץ מִישֽׁוֹר׃
11 For [the] sake of name your O Yahweh you will preserve alive me in righteousness your - you will bring out from trouble life my.
לְמַעַן־שִׁמְךָ יְהֹוָה תְּחַיֵּנִי בְּצִדְקָתְךָ ׀ תּוֹצִיא מִצָּרָה נַפְשִֽׁי׃
12 And in covenant loyalty your you will destroy enemies my and you will destroy all [the] opposers of life my for I [am] servant your.
וּֽבְחַסְדְּךָ תַּצְמִית אֹיְבָי וְֽהַאֲבַדְתָּ כׇּל־צֹרְרֵי נַפְשִׁי כִּי אֲנִי עַבְדֶּֽךָ׃
