1A Psalm of David. Hear my prayer, O Lord; give ear to my pleas for mercy! In your faithfulness answer me, in your righteousness! (مز 31:1; مز 140:6; 1يو 1:9)2Enter not into judgment with your servant, for no one living is righteous before you. (1مل 8:46; أي 9:2; أي 14:3; أي 15:14; أي 25:4; مز 130:3; جا 7:20; رو 3:23; 1كو 4:4)3For the enemy has pursued my soul; he has crushed my life to the ground; he has made me sit in darkness like those long dead. (مز 88:3; مرا 3:6)4Therefore my spirit faints within me; my heart within me is appalled. (مز 77:3)5I remember the days of old; I meditate on all that you have done; I ponder the work of your hands. (مز 77:5; مز 77:11; مز 77:12; مز 111:2)6I stretch out my hands to you; my soul thirsts for you like a parched land. (أي 11:13; مز 42:2; مز 63:1)7Answer me quickly, O Lord! My spirit fails! Hide not your face from me, lest I be like those who go down to the pit. (مز 27:9; مز 28:1; مز 69:17; مز 84:2; مز 88:4; مز 102:2)8Let me hear in the morning of your steadfast love, for in you I trust. Make me know the way I should go, for to you I lift up my soul. (مز 11:1; مز 25:1; مز 25:2; مز 25:4; مز 90:14)9Deliver me from my enemies, O Lord! I have fled to you for refuge.[1] (مز 59:1; مز 142:6)10Teach me to do your will, for you are my God! Let your good Spirit lead me on level ground! (نح 9:20; مز 23:3; مز 27:11; مز 119:12; إش 26:10)11For your name’s sake, O Lord, preserve my life! In your righteousness bring my soul out of trouble! (مز 23:3; مز 25:11; مز 71:20; مز 142:7)12And in your steadfast love you will cut off my enemies, and you will destroy all the adversaries of my soul, for I am your servant. (مز 54:5; مز 116:16)
