Psalms 143

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	NOVA VULGATA
1 A psalm of David. LORD, hear my prayer; in your faithfulness listen to my pleading; answer me in your justice.	1 Psalmus. David. Domine, exaudi orationem meam, auribus percipe obsecrationem meam in veritatetua; exaudi me in tua iustitia.
2 Do not enter into judgment with your servant; before you no living being can be just.	2 Et non intres in iudicium cum servo tuo, quia non iustificabitur in conspectu tuo omnis vivens.
3 The enemy has pursued me; they have crushed my life to the ground. They have left me in darkness like those long dead.	3 Quia persecutus est inimicus animam meam, contrivit in terra vitam meam, collocavit me in obscuris sicut mortuos a saeculo.
4 My spirit is faint within me; my heart is dismayed.	4 Et anxiatus est in me spiritus meus, in medio mei obriguit cor meum.
5 I remember the days of old; I ponder all your deeds; the works of your hands I recall.	5 Memor fui dierum antiquorum, meditatus sum in omnibus operibus tuis, in factis manuum tuarum recogitabam.
6 I stretch out my hands to you; I thirst for you like a parched land. Selah	6 Expandi manus meas ad te, anima mea sicut terra sine aqua tibi.
7 Hasten to answer me, LORD; for my spirit fails me. Do not hide your face from me, lest I become like those descending to the pit.	7 Velociter exaudi me, Domine; defecit spiritus meus. Non abscondas faciem tuam a me, ne similis fiam descendentibus in lacum.
8 At dawn let me hear of your kindness, for in you I trust. Show me the path I should walk, for to you I entrust my life.	8 Auditam fac mihi mane misericordiam tuam, quia in te speravi. Notam fac mihi viam, in qua ambulem, quia ad te levavi animam meam.
9 Rescue me, LORD, from my foes, for in you I hope.	9 Eripe me de inimicis meis, Domine, ad te confugi.
10 Teach me to do your will, for you are my God. May your kind spirit guide me on ground that is level.	10 Doce me facere voluntatem tuam, quia Deus meus es tu. Spiritus tuus bonus deducet me in terram rectam;
11 For your name's sake, LORD, give me life; in your justice lead me out of distress.	11 propter nomen tuum, Domine, vivificabis me. In iustitia tua educes de tribulatione animam meam
12 In your kindness put an end to my foes; destroy all who attack me, for I am your servant. Psalm	12 et in misericordia tua disperdes inimicos meos; et perdes omnes, qui tribulant animam meam, quoniam ego servus tuus sum.
