My Soul Reaches for You
A Psalm of David.
O Yahweh, hear my prayer,
aGive ear to my supplications!
Answer me in Your bfaithfulness, in Your crighteousness!
2 And ado not enter into judgment with Your slave,
For bno one living is righteous in Your sight.
3 For the enemy has pursued my soul;
He has crushed my life ato the ground;
He bhas made me inhabit dark places, like those who have long been dead.
4 Therefore amy spirit was faint within me;
My heart was bappalled within me.
5 I aremember the days of old;
I bmeditate on all You have done;
I cmuse on the work of Your hands.
6 I astretch out my hands to You;
My bsoul reaches for You like a weary land. Selah.
7 aAnswer me quickly, O Yahweh, my bspirit wastes away;
cDo not hide Your face from me,
Or I will become like dthose who go down to the pit.
