Psalm 143

Prayer for Help and Guidance.

A Psalm of David.

1Hear my prayer, Lord,
Listen to my pleadings!
Answer me in Your faithfulness, in Your righteousness!
2And do not enter into judgment with Your servant,
For no person living is righteous in Your sight.
3For 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.
4Therefore my spirit feels weak within me;
My heart is appalled within me.
5I remember the days of old;
I meditate on all Your accomplishments;
I reflect on the work of Your hands.
6I spread out my hands to You;
My soul longs for You, like a weary land.
Selah
