Psalms 143:4-12

⁴Therefore is my spirit overwhelmed within me; my heart within me is desolate.

⁵I remember the days of old, I meditate on all thy works; I muse on the work of thy hands.

⁶I stretch forth my hands to thee: my soul thirsteth after thee, as a thirsty land. Selah.

⁷Hear me speedily, O LORD: my spirit faileth: hide not thy face from me, lest I be like them that go down into the pit.

⁸Cause me to hear thy loving-kindness in the morning; for in thee do I trust: cause me to know the way in which I should walk; for I lift up my soul to thee.

⁹Deliver me, O LORD, from my enemies: I flee to thee to hide me.

¹⁰Teach me to do thy will; for thou art my God: thy spirit is good; lead me into the land of uprightness.

¹¹Revive me, O LORD, for thy name's sake: for thy righteousness' sake bring my soul out of trouble.

¹²And of thy mercy cut off my enemies, and destroy all them that afflict my soul: for I am thy servant.
