PSALM CXLIII.* Domine, exaudi.

HEAR my prayer, O Lord, and con--si | der my

desire : hearken unto me for thy truth and right | eous--ness' sake. 2 And enter not into : judge---ment | with thy

servant : for in thy sight shall no man liv{ing -- be | jus-·-tified.

3 For the enemy hath persecuted my soul ; he hath smitten my life | down to the ground : he hath laid me in the darkness, as the men { that have been --- long dead.

4 Therefore is my spi: rit -- vex | ed with-:-in me : and my heart within me --- is | de---solate.

thy works : yea, I exercise myself in { the works of

thy hands. 6 I stretch : forth --- my hands un---to thee : my soul gaspeth unto thee { as -- a thirs--ty land.

*7 Hear me, O Lord, and that soon, for my spi | rit wax-'-eth faint : hide not thy face from me, lest I be like unto them that go down in to the pit.

8 0 let me hear thy loving-kindness betimes in the morning, for in thee is my trust : shew thou me the

that I should walk in, for I lift up my- soul | un---to thee.
