1Hear my prayer, O Yahuah (LORD), give ear to my supplications: in your faithfulness answer me, and in your righteousness.
2And enter not into judgment with your servant: for in your sight shall no man living be justified.
3For the enemy has persecuted my soul; he has smitten my life down to the ground; he has made me to dwell in darkness, as those that have been long dead.
4Therefore is my spirit overwhelmed within me; my heart within me is desolate.
5I remember the days of old; I meditate on all your works; I muse on the work of your hands.
6I stretch forth my hands unto you: my soul thirsteth after you, as a thirsty land. Selah.
7Hear me speedily, O Yahuah (LORD): my spirit fails: hide not your face from me, lest I be like unto them that go down into the pit.
8Cause me to hear your lovingkindness in the morning; for in you do I trust: cause me to know the way wherein I should walk; for I lift up my soul unto you.
9Deliver me, O Yahuah (LORD), from my enemies: I flee unto you to hide me.
10Teach me to do your will; for you are my Elohim (God): your spirit is good; lead me into the land of uprightness.
11Quicken me, O Yahuah (LORD), for your name’s sake: for your righteousness’ sake bring my soul out of trouble.
12And of your mercy cut off my enemies, and destroy all them that afflict my soul: for I am your servant.
