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.

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

I remember the days of old; I meditate on all Your works; I consider the work of Your hands.

I stretch forth my hands unto thee: my soul thirsteth after thee, as a thirsty land. Selah.

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.

Deliver me, O LORD, from mine enemies: I flee unto thee to hide me.

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

Teach me to do Your will, for You are my God. May Your good Spirit lead me on level ground.

Quicken me, O LORD, for thy name’s sake: for thy righteousness’ sake bring my soul out of trouble.

For the sake of Your name, O LORD, revive me. In Your righteousness, bring my soul out of trouble.

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

And in Your loving devotion, cut off my enemies. Destroy all who afflict me, for I am Your servant.
