Psalmorum 143
1 psalmus David quando filius eum persequebatur Domine exaudi orationem meam auribus percipe obsecrationem meam in veritate tua exaudi me in tua iustitia
A Psalm of David. O Jehovah, hear my prayer, Give ear unto my supplications, In Thy faithfulness answer me — in Thy righteousness.
2 et non intres in iudicio cum servo tuo quia non iustificabitur in conspectu tuo omnis vivens
And enter not into judgment with Thy servant, For no one living is justified before Thee.
3 quia persecutus est inimicus animam meam humiliavit in terra vitam meam conlocavit me in obscuris sicut mortuos saeculi
For an enemy hath pursued my soul, He hath bruised to the earth my life, He hath caused me to dwell in dark places, As the dead of old.
4 et anxiatus est super me spiritus meus in me turbatum est cor meum
And my spirit in me is become feeble, Within me is my heart become desolate.
5 memor fui dierum antiquorum meditatus sum in omnibus operibus tuis in factis manuum tuarum meditabar
I have remembered days of old, I have meditated on all Thine acts, On the work of Thy hand I muse.
6 expandi manus meas ad te anima mea sicut terra sine aqua tibi diapsalma
I have spread forth my hands unto Thee, My soul [is] as a weary land for Thee. (Selah)
7 velociter exaudi me Domine defecit spiritus meus non avertas faciem tuam a me et similis ero descendentibus in lacum
Haste, answer me, O Jehovah, My spirit hath been consumed, Hide not Thou Thy face from me, Or I have been compared with those going down [to] the pit.
8 auditam mihi fac mane misericordiam tuam quia in te speravi notam fac mihi viam in qua ambulem quia ad te levavi animam meam
Cause me to hear in the morning Thy kindness, For in Thee I have trusted, Cause me to know the way that I go, For unto Thee I have lifted up my soul.
9 eripe me de inimicis meis Domine ad te confugi
Deliver me from mine enemies, O Jehovah, Near Thee I am covered.
10 doce me facere voluntatem tuam quia Deus meus es tu spiritus tuus bonus deducet me in terra recta
Teach me to do Thy good pleasure, For Thou [art] my God — Thy Spirit [is] good, Lead me into a land of uprightness.
11 propter nomen tuum Domine vivificabis me in aequitate tua educes de tribulatione animam meam
For Thy name's sake O Jehovah, Thou dost quicken me, In Thy righteousness, Thou bringest out from distress my soul,
12 et in misericordia tua disperdes inimicos meos et perdes omnes qui tribulant animam meam quoniam ego servus tuus sum
And in Thy kindness cuttest off mine enemies, And hast destroyed all the adversaries of my soul, For I [am] Thy servant!
