Psalms 143
1 A psalm of David. Hear my prayer, Yahweh; listen to my pleas. Because of your faithfulness and 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 enter into judgment with your servant, for in your sight no one is righteous.
et non intres in iudicio cum servo tuo quia non iustificabitur in conspectu tuo omnis vivens
3 The enemy has pursued my soul; he has crushed me to the ground; he has made me to live in darkness like those who have been dead a long time.
quia persecutus est inimicus animam meam humiliavit in terra vitam meam conlocavit me in obscuris sicut mortuos saeculi
4 My spirit is overwhelmed within me; my heart despairs.
et anxiatus est super me spiritus meus in me turbatum est cor meum
5 I call to mind the old days; I meditate on all your deeds; I reflect on your accomplishments.
memor fui dierum antiquorum meditatus sum in omnibus operibus tuis in factis manuum tuarum meditabar
6 I spread my hands out to you; my soul thirsts for you in a parched land. (Selah)
expandi manus meas ad te anima mea sicut terra sine aqua tibi diapsalma
7 Answer me quickly, Yahweh, because my spirit faints. Do not hide your face from me, or I will 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 Let me hear your covenant faithfulness in the morning, for I trust in you. Show me the way where 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 Rescue me from my enemies, Yahweh; I flee to you to hide.
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 in the land of uprightness.
doce me facere voluntatem tuam quia Deus meus es tu spiritus tuus bonus deducet me in terra recta
11 Yahweh, for your name's sake, keep me alive; 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 covenant faithfulness cut off my enemies and destroy all the enemies of my life, for I am your servant.
et in misericordia tua disperdes inimicos meos et perdes omnes qui tribulant animam meam quoniam ego servus tuus sum
