Psalms 143

1 A Psalm of David. O LORD, hear my prayer. In Your faithfulness, give ear to my plea; in Your righteousness, answer me.

1 耶和华啊，求你垂听我的祷告， 倾听我的祈求， 求你凭你的信实和公义应允我。

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

2 求你不要审判你的仆人， 因为在你面前世间没有一个义人。

3 For the enemy has pursued my soul, crushing my life to the ground, making me dwell in darkness like those long since dead.

3 敌人迫害我，打垮我， 使我生活在黑暗中， 像死去很久的人。

4 My spirit grows faint within me; my heart is dismayed inside me.

4 我精疲力竭，心惊胆战。

5 I remember the days of old; I meditate on all Your works; I consider the work of Your hands.

5 我想起遥远的过去， 我默想你的一切作为， 我回想你所做的事。

6 I stretch out my hands to You; my soul thirsts for You like a parched land. Selah

6 我举手向你呼求， 我的心渴慕你如同干旱之地渴慕甘霖。（细拉）

7 Answer me quickly, O LORD; my spirit fails. Do not hide Your face from me, or I will be like those who descend to the Pit.

7 耶和华啊，求你快快应允我！ 我已绝望，求你不要掩面不顾我， 不然我必和下坟墓的人无异。

8 Let me hear Your loving devotion in the morning, for I have put my trust in You. Teach me the way I should walk, for to You I lift up my soul.

8 求你让我在清晨就听见你的慈言爱语， 因为我信靠你； 求你指示我当走的路， 因为我的心仰望你。

9 Deliver me from my enemies, O LORD; I flee to You for refuge.

9 耶和华啊，求你救我脱离仇敌， 我要到你那里寻求庇护。

10 Teach me to do Your will, for You are my God. May Your good Spirit lead me on level ground.

10 求你教导我遵行你的旨意， 因为你是我的上帝， 愿你良善的灵引导我走平坦的路。

11 For the sake of Your name, O LORD, revive me. In Your righteousness, bring my soul out of trouble.

11 耶和华啊，求你为你的名而保全我性命， 凭你的公义救我脱离患难。

12 And in Your loving devotion, cut off my enemies. Destroy all who afflict me, for I am Your servant.

12 求你施慈爱，铲除我的仇敌， 求你消灭一切迫害我的人， 因为我是你的仆人。
