\d A psalm written by David.
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 1 Yahweh, hear me while I pray to you!
|
|
\q2 Because you are righteous
|
|
\q2 and because you faithfully do what you have promised,
|
|
\q2 listen to what I am pleading for you to do for me.
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 2 I am one who worships you;
|
|
\q1 do not judge me
|
|
\q2 because you do not consider anyone to be completely innocent.
|
|
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 3 My enemies have pursued me;
|
|
\q2 they have completely defeated me.
|
|
\q1 It is as though they have put me in a dark prison
|
|
\q1 where I have nothing good to hope for.
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 4 So I am very discouraged in my inner being;
|
|
\q2 I am very dismayed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 5 I remember what has happened previously;
|
|
\q2 I meditate on all the things that you have done;
|
|
\q1 I consider all the great deeds that you have performed.
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 6 I lift up my hands to you while I pray;
|
|
\q2 I want very much to be with you as much as I would thirst for water in a vast wilderness.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 7 Yahweh, I am very discouraged,
|
|
\q2 so please answer me right now!
|
|
\q1 Do not keep away from me
|
|
\q2 because if you do that, I will soon be among those who descend to where the dead people are.
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 8 Every morning cause me to remember that you faithfully love me
|
|
\q2 because I trust in you.
|
|
\q1 I pray to you;
|
|
\q2 show me the things that I should do.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 9 Yahweh, I have gone to you for you to protect me,
|
|
\q2 so rescue me from my enemies.
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 10 You are my God;
|
|
\q2 teach me to do what you want me to do.
|
|
\q1 I want your good Spirit to show me the right things to do.
|
|
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 11 Yahweh, restore me when I am close to dying as you promised to do
|
|
\q2 because you are righteous!
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 12 I am one who serves you;
|
|
\q1 so because you faithfully love me as you promised to do,
|
|
\q2 kill my enemies
|
|
\q2 and get rid of all those who oppress me.
