Psalm 142

1 I cry out to the Lord with my voice; With my voice to the Lord I make my supplication.

A Plea for Relief from PersecutorsA Contemplation Of David. A Prayer When He Was in the Cave.

2 I pour out my complaint before Him; I declare before Him my trouble.3 When my spirit was overwhelmed within me, Then You knew my path. In the way in which I walk They have secretly set a snare for me.4 Look on my right hand and see, For there is no one who acknowledges me; Refuge has failed me; No one cares for my soul.5 I cried out to You, O Lord: I said, You are my refuge, My portion in the land of the living.6 Attend to my cry, For I am brought very low; Deliver me from my persecutors, For they are stronger than I.7 Bring my soul out of prison, That I may praise Your name; The righteous shall surround me, For You shall deal bountifully with me.

Psalm 143

1 Hear my prayer, O Lord,

An Earnest Appeal for Guidance and DeliveranceA Psalm of David. Give ear to my supplications! In Your faithfulness answer me, And in Your righteousness.

2 Do not enter into judgment with Your servant, For in Your sight no one living is righteous.3 For the enemy has persecuted my soul; He has crushed my life to the ground; He has made me dwell in darkness, Like those who have long been dead.4 Therefore my spirit is overwhelmed within me; My heart within me is distressed.5 I remember the days of old; I meditate on all Your works; I muse on the work of Your hands.6 I spread out my hands to You; My soul longs for You like a thirsty land. Selah7 Answer me speedily, O Lord; My spirit fails! Do not hide Your face from me, Lest I be like those who go down into the pit.8 Cause me to hear Your lovingkindness in the morning, For in You do I trust; Cause me to know the way in which I should walk, For I lift up my soul to You.9 Deliver me, O Lord, from my enemies; In You I take shelter.10 Teach me to do Your will, For You are my God; Your Spirit is good. Lead me in the land of uprightness.11 Revive me, O Lord, for Your names sake! For Your righteousness sake bring my soul out of trouble.12 In Your mercy cut off my enemies, And destroy all those who afflict my soul; For I am Your servant.

Psalm 144

1 Blessed be the Lord my Rock, Who trains my hands for war,

A Song to the Lord Who Preserves and Prospers His PeopleA Psalm of David. And my fingers for battle

2 My lovingkindness and my fortress, My high tower and my deliverer, My shield and the One in whom I take refuge, Who subdues my people under me.3 Lord, what is man, that You take knowledge of him? Or the son of man, that You are mindful of him?4 Man is like a breath; His days are like a passing shadow.5 Bow down Your heavens, O Lord, and come down; Touch the mountains, and they shall smoke.6 Flash forth lightning and scatter them; Shoot out Your arrows and destroy them.7 Stretch out Your hand from above; Rescue me and deliver me out of great waters, From the hand of foreigners,8 Whose mouth speaks lying words, And whose right hand is a right hand of falsehood.9 I will sing a new song to You, O God; On a harp of ten strings I will sing praises to You,10 The One who gives salvation to kings, Who delivers David His servant From the deadly sword.11 Rescue me and deliver me from the hand of foreigners, Whose mouth speaks lying words, And whose right hand is a right hand of falsehood12 That our sons may be as plants grown up in their youth; That our daughters may be as pillars, Sculptured in palace style;13 That our barns may be full, Supplying all kinds of produce; That our sheep may bring forth thousands And ten thousands in our fields;14 That our oxen may be well laden; That there be no breaking in or going out; That there be no outcry in our streets.15 Happy are the people who are in such a state; Happy are the people whose God is the Lord!
