Selah.\n \n7\u00a0Hear 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.\n \n8\u00a0Cause 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.\n \n9\u00a0Deliver me, O LORD, from mine enemies: I flee unto thee to hide me.\n \n10\u00a0Teach me to do thy will; for thou art my God: thy spirit is good; lead me into the land of uprightness.\n \n11\u00a0Quicken me, O LORD, for thy name's sake: for thy righteousness' sake bring my soul out of trouble.\n \n12\u00a0And of thy mercy cut off mine enemies, and destroy all them that afflict my soul: for I am thy servant.","title":"King James Version: Psalms: Psalms Chapter 143","type":"page"}
