1Hear my prayer, O Jehovah; give ear to my supplications: In thy faithfulness answer me, [and] in thy righteousness.

2And enter not into judgment with thy servant; For in thy sight no man living is righteous.

3For the enemy hath persecuted my soul; He hath smitten my life down to the ground: He hath made me to dwell in dark places, as those that have been long dead.

4Therefore is my spirit overwhelmed within me; My heart within me is desolate.

5I remember the days of old; I meditate on all thy doings; I muse on the work of thy hands.

6I spread forth my hands unto thee: My soul [thirsteth] after thee, as a weary land. Selah

7Make haste to answer me, O Jehovah; my spirit faileth: Hide not thy face from me, Lest I become like them that go down into the pit.
