6 I stretch out my hands to you in prayer.Like parched land, my soul thirsts for you. Selah
7 Answer me quickly, O Lord.My spirit is worn out.Do not hide your face from me,or I will be like those who go into the pit.
8 Let me hear about your mercy in the morning,because I trust you.Let me know the way that I should go,because I long for you.
9 Rescue me from my enemies, O Lord.I come to you for protection.
10 Teach me to do your will, because you are my God.May your good Spirit lead me on level ground.
11 O Lord, keep me alive for the sake of your name.Because you are righteous, lead me out of trouble.
12 In keeping with your mercy, wipe out my enemiesand destroy all who torment me,because I am your servant.
