New Living Translation

Psalms 143:4-12 New Living Translation (NLT)

4. I am losing all hope;I am paralyzed with fear.

5. I remember the days of old.I ponder all your great worksand think about what you have done.

6. I lift my hands to you in prayer.I thirst for you as parched land thirsts for rain.Interlude

7. Come quickly, lord, and answer me,for my depression deepens.Don’t turn away from me,or I will die.

8. Let me hear of your unfailing love each morning,for I am trusting you.Show me where to walk,for I give myself to you.

9. Rescue me from my enemies, lord;I run to you to hide me.

10. Teach me to do your will,for you are my God.May your gracious Spirit lead me forwardon a firm footing.

11. For the glory of your name, O  lord, preserve my life.Because of your faithfulness, bring me out of this distress.

12. In your unfailing love, silence all my enemiesand destroy all my foes,for I am your servant.
