1 A Psalm: By David. Hear my prayer, O Yah Veh; hearken to my supplications: in your trustworthiness answer me - in your justness.
2 And enter not into judgment with your servant; for at your face no one living is justified;
3 for an enemy pursues my soul; he crushes my life to the earth; he settles me in darkness as the eternal dead:
4 my spirit within me languishes; my heart within me desolates:
5 I remember the days of antiquity; I meditate on all your deeds; I meditate on the work of your hands:
6 I spread my hands to you; my soul is as a languid land for you. Selah.
7 Answer me hastily, O Yah Veh; my spirit finishes off: hide not your face from me; lest I be as they who descend in the well:
8 that I hear your mercy in the morning; for in you I confide: that I know the way wherein I walk; for I lift up my soul to you.
9 Rescue me, O Yah Veh, from my enemies - cover me with yourself;
10 teach me to work your pleasure for you are my Elohim; your spirit is good; lead me into the land of straightness.
11 Enliven me, O Yah Veh, for sake of your name; for sake of your justness bring my soul from tribulation:
12 and by your mercy cut off my enemies and exterminate all who tribulate my soul; for I am your servant.
