Psalms 143:2-8 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

2. Do not bring Your servant into judgment, for no one alive is righteous in Your sight.

3. For the enemy has pursued me,crushing me to the ground,making me live in darknesslike those long dead.

4. My spirit is weak within me;my heart is overcome with dismay.

5. I remember the days of old;I meditate on all You have done;I reflect on the work of Your hands.

6. I spread out my hands to You;I am like parched land before You. Selah

7. Answer me quickly, Lord;my spirit fails. Don’t hide Your face from me,or I will be like thosegoing down to the Pit.

8. Let me experienceYour faithful love in the morning,for I trust in You. Reveal to me the way I should gobecause I long for You.
