| [1] Heare my prayer O God, geue eare vnto my desire: hearken vnto me for thy trueth sake, for thy ryghteousnesse sake |
[1]A Psalm of David. O 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇, hear my prayer, give ear to my supplications; in Thy faithfulness answer me, and in Thy righteousness. |
| [2]And enter not into iudgement with thy seruaunt: for in thy syght no man lyuyng can be iustified |
[2]And enter not into judgment with Thy servant; for in Thy sight shall no man living be justified. |
| [3]For the enemie hath persecuted my soule, he hath smitten my lyfe downe to the grounde: he hath layde me in darknesse as men that haue ben long dead |
[3]For the enemy hath persecuted my soul; he hath crushed my life down to the ground; he hath made me to dwell in darkness, as those that have been long dead. |
| [4]And my spirite is ouerwhelmed within me: and my heart is desolate in the midst of me |
[4]And my spirit fainteth within me; my heart within me is appalled. |
| [5]I call to remembraunce the tyme long past: I muse vpon euery act of thine, I exercise my study on the worke of thy handes |
[5]I remember the days of old; I meditate on all Thy doing; I muse on the work of Thy hands. |
| [6]I stretche foorth myne handes vnto thee: my soule as a thirstie lande [gaspeth] vnto thee. Selah |
[6]I spread forth my hands unto Thee; my soul thirsteth after Thee, as a weary land. Selah |
| [7]Make speede, hearken vnto me O God, my spirite waxeth faynt: hyde not thy face from me, for I am lyke vnto them that go downe into the pyt |
[7]Answer me speedily, O 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇, my spirit faileth; hide not Thy face from me; lest I become like them that go down into the pit. |
| [8]Cause me to heare of thy louyng kindnesse betymes in the mornyng: for in thee is my trust. (143:9) Make me to knowe the way that I shoulde walke in: for I lyft vp my soule vnto thee |
[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 unto Thee have I lifted up my soul. |
| [9](143:10) Delyuer me O God from myne enemies: I hyde my selfe with thee |
[9]Deliver me from mine enemies, O 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇; with Thee have I hidden myself. |
| [10](143:11) Teache me to do the thyng that pleaseth thee, for thou art my Lorde: let thy good spirite leade me foorth vnto the lande of ryghteousnesse |
[10]Teach me to do Thy will, for Thou art my God; let Thy good spirit lead me in an even land. |
| [11](143:12) For thy names sake O God thou wilt cause me to lyue: and for thy righteousnesse sake thou wilt bryng my soule out of trouble |
[11]For Thy name's sake, O 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇, quicken me; in Thy righteousness bring my soul out of trouble. |
| [12](143:13) And of thy goodnesse thou wylt restrayne myne enemies: and destroy all them that be aduersaries to my soule, for I am thy seruaunt |
[12]And in Thy mercy cut off mine enemies, and destroy all them that harass my soul; for I am Thy servant. |
