Psalms 143:5 DBY

³  For the enemy persecuteth my soul: he hath crushed my life down to the earth; he hath made me to dwell in dark places, as those that have been long dead.

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

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

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

⁷  Answer me speedily, O Jehovah; my spirit faileth: hide not thy face from me, or I shall be like unto them that go down into the pit.
