Rotherham - Psalms - 143

143:1  O Yahweh, hear my prayer, Give ear to my supplications, In thy faithfulness, answer me, in thy righteousness.

143:2  Do not then enter into judgment with thy servant, for no one living, can appear just before thee.

143:3  For an enemy hath pursued my soul, hath crushed, to the earth, my life, hath made me dwell in dark places, like the ancient dead.

143:4  Therefore hath my spirit, fainted concerning myself, Within me, hath, my heart, been confounded.

143:5  I have remembered the days of aforetime, I have talked with myself of every deed of thine, Of the work of thy hands, I would speak:

143:6  I have spread out my hands unto thee, My soul, is as a thirsty land, for thee. [Selah.]

143:7  Speedily answer me, O Yahweh, My spirit faileth,—Do not hide thy face from me, or I shall be made like unto them who go down into the pit.

143:8  Let me hear, in the morning, thy lovingkindness, for, in thee, have, I trusted,—Let me know the way in which I should walk, for, unto thee, have I uplifted my soul.

143:9  Rescue me from my foes, O Yahweh, Unto thee, have I come seeking refuge.

143:10  Teach me to do thy good pleasure, for, thou, art my God,—Thy spirit, is good, thou wilt set me down to rest in a level land.

143:11  For the sake of thy Name, O Yahweh, wilt thou give unto me life, In thy righteousness, wilt thou bring forth, out of distress, my soul;

143:12  And, in thy lovingkindness, wilt thou exterminate my foes,—and destroy all the adversaries of my soul, because, I, am thy servant.
