Hear, O Lord, my prayer: give ear to my supplication in thy truth: hear me in thy justice. 2And enter not into judgment with thy servant: for in thy sight no man living shall be justified. 3For the enemy hath persecuted my soul: he hath brought down my life to the earth. He hath made me to dwell in darkness as those that have been dead of old: 4And my spirit is in anguish within me: my heart within me is troubled. 5I remembered the days of old, I meditated on all thy works: I meditated upon the works of thy hands. 6I stretched forth my hands to thee: my soul is as earth without water unto thee. 7Hear me speedily, O Lord: my spirit hath fainted away. Turn not away thy face from me, lest I be like unto them that go down into the pit. 8Cause me to hear thy mercy in the morning; for in thee have I hoped. Make the way known to me, wherein I should walk: for I have lifted up my soul to thee. 9Deliver me from my enemies, O Lord, to thee have I fled: 10Teach me to do thy will, for thou art my God. Thy good spirit shall lead me into the right land: 11for thy name's sake, O Lord, thou wilt quicken me in thy justice. Thou wilt bring my soul out of trouble: 12And in thy mercy thou wilt destroy my enemies. And thou wilt cut off all them that afflict my soul: for I am thy servant. ‹Previous chapterPsalms 141Next chapterPsalms 143›Similar passagesBy tradition and source labelFind similarCompare selectedCompare with similarAsk Deep ThoughtSelect passages to search for parallels.VersionsPsalms 142 across 9 versionsShow all 9WEB - World English BibleKJV - King James VersionASV - American Standard VersionDarby - Darby BibleYLT - Young's Literal TranslationWebster - Webster BibleGeneva - Geneva BibleDouay - Douay-Rheims ChallonerRV1909 - Reina-Valera 1909Tap any verse to select it, then compare selected passages or ask Deep Thought.
