¹ Hear my prayer, O LORD, give ear to my supplications; in Thy faithfulness answer me, and in Thy righteousness.

² And enter not into judgment with Thy servant, for in Thy sight shall no man living be justified.

³ For the enemy hath persecuted my soul; he hath smitten my life down to the ground. He hath made me to dwell in darkness, as those that have been long dead.

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

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

⁶ I stretch forth my hands unto Thee; my soul thirsteth after Thee, as a thirsty land. Selah

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

⁸ Cause me to hear Thy lovingkindness in the morning, for in Thee do I trust. Cause me to know the way wherein I should walk, for I lift up my soul unto Thee.

⁹ Deliver me, O LORD, from mine enemies; I flee unto Thee to hide me.

¹⁰ Teach me to do Thy will, for Thou art my God. Thy Spirit is good; lead me into the land of uprightness.

¹¹ Quicken me, O LORD, for Thy name's sake; for Thy righteousness' sake bring my soul out of trouble.

¹² And in Thy mercy cut off mine enemies, and destroy all them that afflict my soul; for I am Thy servant.
