I remember the days of old,
reflecting on all your deeds,
thinking about the work of your hands.
I spread out my hands to you,
I long for you like a thirsty land. (Selah)

Answer me quickly, Adonai,
because my spirit is fainting.
Don’t hide your face from me,
or I’ll be like those who drop down into a pit.

I remember(A) the days of long ago;
    I meditate(B) on all your works
    and consider what your hands have done.
I spread out my hands(C) to you;
    I thirst for you like a parched land.[a]

Answer me quickly,(D) Lord;
    my spirit fails.(E)
Do not hide your face(F) from me
    or I will be like those who go down to the pit.
