TEHILLIM143eng_ojb
1(Mizmor of Dovid)1 Hear my tefillah, Hashem, give ear to my techinot (supplications);in Thy emunah answer me, and in Thy tzedakah.2And enter not into mishpat with Thy eved;for in Thy sight shall no man living be yitzadak (justified).3For the oyev (enemy) hath persecuted my nefesh;he hath struck down my life to the ground;he hath made me to dwell in places of choshech (darkness),like metei olam (those long dead).4Therefore is my ruach become faint within me;my lev within me is desolate.5I remember yamim mikedem (days of old),I meditate on all Thy works;I muse on the ma'aseh (work) of Thy hands.6I stretch forth my hands unto Thee;my nefesh thirsteth after Thee, like an eretz ayefah (a parched, thirsty land).Selah7Hear me speedily, Hashem; my ruach faileth;hide not Thy face from me,lest I be like those that go down into the bor (pit).8Cause me to hear Thy chesed in the boker;for in Thee do I trust;cause me to know the Derech wherein I should walk;for I lift up my nefesh unto Thee.9Save me, Hashem, from mine oyevim (enemies);I flee unto Thee to hide me.10Teach me to do Retzonecha (Thy will);for Thou art Elohai;may Thy Ruach Tov lead me on level ground.11Revive me, Hashem, l'ma'an (for the sake of) Thy Shem (Name);in Thy tzedakah bring my nefesh out of tzoros.12And in Thy chesed silence mine enemies,and destroy all them that oppress my nefesh;for I am Thy eved.
