A psalm of David. Adonai, I call to You— come quickly to me! Hear my voice when I call to You.
But may all who seek You rejoice and be glad in You. May those who love Your salvation always say, “Let God be magnified.”
O God, be not far from me! My God, come quickly to help me.
Answer me speedily, Adonai— my spirit fails. Hide not Your face from me, lest I become like those who go down into the Pit.
For evils beyond number surround me, my sins have overtaken me —I cannot see— they are more than the hairs of my head —and my heart fails me.
They divide my clothes among them, and cast lots for my garment.
A psalm of David. Hear my prayer, Adonai, give ear to my petitions. In Your faithfulness and Your righteousness, answer me!
Why do You not pardon my transgression, and take away my iniquity? For now I will lie down in the dust, and You will search for me, but I will be gone.”
Hear the sound of my pleas, when I cry to You for help, when I lift up my hands toward Your holy Sanctuary.
O God, come quickly to deliver me, Adonai, to help me.
