Psalms 143:4-9 New English Translation (NET)

4. My strength leaves me;I am absolutely shocked.

5. I recall the old days;I meditate on all you have done;I reflect on your accomplishments.

6. I spread my hands out to you in prayer;my soul thirsts for you in a parched land.

7. Answer me quickly, Lord!My strength is fading.Do not reject me,or I will join those descending into the grave.

8. May I hear about your loyal love in the morning,for I trust in you.Show me the way I should go,because I long for you.

9. Rescue me from my enemies, O Lord!I run to you for protection.
