Psalms 143:3-7

³The 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.

⁴My spirit is overwhelmed within me; my heart despairs.

⁵I call to mind the old days; I meditate on all your deeds; I reflect on your accomplishments.

⁶I spread my hands out to you; my soul thirsts for you in a parched land. Selah

⁷Answer 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.
