1 A Psalm of David. O LORD, hear my prayer. In Your faithfulness, give ear to my plea; in Your righteousness, answer me. Hear my prayer, O LORD; give ear to my pleas for mercy! In your faithfulness answer me, in your righteousness! A Psalm of David. Hear my prayer, O LORD, give ear to my supplications: in thy faithfulness answer me, <i>and</i> in thy righteousness. A Psalm of David. Hear my prayer, LORD, Listen to my pleadings! Answer me in Your faithfulness, in Your righteousness! A psalm of David. LORD, hear my prayer, listen to my cry for mercy; in your faithfulness and righteousness come to my relief.
2 Do not bring Your servant into judgment, for no one alive is righteous before You. Enter not into judgment with your servant, for no one living is righteous before you. And enter not into judgment with thy servant: for in thy sight shall no man living be justified. And do not enter into judgment with Your servant, For no person living is righteous in Your sight. Do not bring your servant into judgment, for no one living is righteous before you.
3 For the enemy has pursued my soul, crushing my life to the ground, making me dwell in darkness like those long since dead. For the enemy has pursued my soul; he has crushed my life to the ground; he has made me sit in darkness like those long dead. 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. For the enemy has persecuted my soul; He has crushed my life to the ground; He has made me dwell in dark places, like those who have long been dead. The enemy pursues me, he crushes me to the ground; he makes me dwell in the darkness like those long dead.
4 My spirit grows faint within me; my heart is dismayed inside me. Therefore my spirit faints within me; my heart within me is appalled. Therefore is my spirit overwhelmed within me; my heart within me is desolate. Therefore my spirit feels weak within me; My heart is appalled within me. So my spirit grows faint within me; my heart within me is dismayed.
5 I remember the days of old; I meditate on all Your works; I consider the work of Your hands. I remember the days of old; I meditate on all that you have done; I ponder the work of your hands.

I remember the days of long ago; I meditate on all your works and consider what your hands have done.
6 I stretch out my hands to You; my soul thirsts for You like a parched land. Selah I stretch out my hands to you; my soul thirsts for you like a parched land.

Selah I spread out my hands to you; I thirst for you like a parched land.
7 Answer me quickly, O LORD; my spirit fails. Do not hide Your face from me, or I will be like those who descend to the Pit. Answer me quickly, O LORD! My spirit fails! Hide not your face from me, lest I be like those who go down to the pit. Hear me speedily, O LORD: my spirit faileth: hide not thy face from me, lest I be like unto them that go down into the pit. Answer me quickly, LORD, my spirit fails; Do not hide Your face from me, Or I will be the same as those who go down to the pit. Answer me quickly, LORD; my spirit fails. Do not hide your face from me or I will be like those who go down to the pit.
