2 And enter not into judgment with thy servant for in thy sight shall no man living be justified

3 For the enemy hath persecuted my soul he hath smitten my life down to the ground he hath made me to dwell in darkness as those that have been long dead

4 Therefore is my spirit overwhelmed within me my heart within me is desolate

5 I remember the days of old I meditate on all thy works I muse on the work of thy hands

6 I stretch forth my hands unto thee my soul thirsteth after thee as a thirsty land Selah

7 Hear me speedily O LORD my spirit faileth hide not thy face from me lest I be like unto them that go down into the pit

8 Cause me to hear thy lovingkindness in the morning for in thee do I trust cause me to know the way wherein I should walk for I lift up my soul unto thee

9 Deliver me O LORD from mine enemies I flee unto thee to hide me

10 Teach me to do thy will for thou art my God thy spirit is good lead me into the land of uprightness

11 Quicken me O LORD for thy name's sake for thy righteousness' sake bring my soul out of trouble

12 And of thy mercy cut off mine enemies and destroy all them that afflict my soul for I am thy servant
