Psalms 143:5 ASV

³  For the enemy hath persecuted my soul; He hath smitten my life down to the ground: He hath made me to dwell in dark places, as those that have been long dead.

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

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

⁶  I spread forth my hands unto thee: My soul 'thirsteth' after thee, as a weary land. Selah

⁷  Make haste to answer me, O Jehovah; my spirit faileth: Hide not thy face from me, Lest I become like them that go down into the pit.
