Psalms 143

Gen Z: Psalms 143

1Yo, listen up, Lord! Hear my prayer and the vibes I'm sending: answer me with your faithfulness and keep it righteous.

2Don’t judge me, fam: no one can flex in front of you.

3My enemies are coming for my soul, dragging me down; it’s dark out here like I’m living with the ghosts.

4My spirit's feeling crushed, and my heart's just empty vibes.

5I think back to the good ol' days; I reflect on all your works, and it just hits different.

6I’m reaching out to you, Lord; my soul is thirsty for you like a dry desert. Selah.

7Hit me up quick, Lord: my spirit's about to crash; don’t ghost me, or I’ll end up in the pit.

8Let me feel your love in the morning; I trust you, so show me the way to roll; I’m lifting my soul to you.

9Save me, Lord, from my haters: I’m running to you for cover.

10Teach me your ways, God; your spirit's lit; guide me to the land of the real ones.

11Revive me, Lord, for your name's reputation: for your goodness, pull my soul out of the mess.

12And by your mercy, take out my enemies and wipe out all those who mess with me: I’m your servant, no cap.

KJV: Psalms 143

1Hear my prayer, O Lord, give ear to my supplications: in thy faithfulness answer me, and in thy righteousness.

2And enter not into judgment with thy servant: for in thy sight shall no man living be justified.

3For 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.

4Therefore is my spirit overwhelmed within me; my heart within me is desolate.

5I remember the days of old; I meditate on all thy works; I muse on the work of thy hands.

6I stretch forth my hands unto thee: my soul thirsteth after thee, as a thirsty land. Selah.

7Hear 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.

8Cause me to hear thy lovingkindness in the morning; for in thee do I trust: cause me to know the way wherein I should walk; for I lift up my soul unto thee.

9Deliver me, O Lord, from mine enemies: I flee unto thee to hide me.

10Teach me to do thy will; for thou art my God: thy spirit is good; lead me into the land of uprightness.

11Quicken me, O Lord, for thy name’s sake: for thy righteousness’ sake bring my soul out of trouble.

12And of thy mercy cut off mine enemies, and destroy all them that afflict my soul: for I am thy servant.
