1. Hear, O Lord, my prayer: give ear to my supplication in Thy truth: hear me in thy justice.
2. And enter not into judgment with Thy servant: for in thy sight no man living shall be justified.
3. For the enemy hath persecuted my soul: He hath brought down my life to the earth. He hath made me to dwell in darkness as those that have been dead of old:
4. And my spirit is in anguish within me: my heart within me is troubled.
5. I remembered the days of old, I meditated on all Thy works: I meditated upon the works of Thy hands.
6. I stretched forth my hands to Thee: my soul is as earth without water unto Thee.
7. Hear me speedily, O Lord: my spirit hath fainted away. Turn not away Thy face from me, lest I be like unto them that go down into the pit.
8. Cause me to hear Thy mercy in the morning; for in Thee have I hoped. Make the way known to me, wherein I should walk: for I have lifted up my soul to Thee.
