Psalm 143:6-8

Revised Standard Version

⁶I stretch out my hands to thee;
my soul thirsts for thee like a parched land.Selah

⁷Make haste to answer me, O Lord!
    My spirit fails!
Hide not thy face from me,
    lest I be like those who go down to the Pit.
⁸Let me hear in the morning of thy steadfast love,
    for in thee I put my trust.
Teach me the way I should go,
    for to thee I lift up my soul.
