JPS Old Testament

Psalms 143

1 A Psalm of David. {N}in Thy faithfulness answer me, and in Thy righteousness.2 And enter not into judgment with Thy servant; 3 For the enemy hath persecuted my soul; he hath crushed my life down to the ground; 4 And my spirit fainteth within me; my heart within me is appalled.5 I remember the days of old; I meditate on all Thy doing; 6 I spread forth my hands unto Thee; my soul [thirsteth] after Thee, as a weary land. Selah

7 Answer me speedily, O LORD, my spirit faileth; 8 Cause me to hear Thy lovingkindness in the morning, for in Thee do I trust; 9 Deliver me from mine enemies, O LORD; with Thee have I hidden myself.10 Teach me to do Thy will, for Thou art my God; 11 For Thy name's sake, O LORD, quicken me; in Thy righteousness bring my soul out of trouble.12 And in Thy mercy cut off mine enemies, and destroy all them that harass my soul; for I am Thy servant.
