Psalm 141:1

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

{A Psalm of David.} LORD, I cry unto thee: make haste unto me; give ear unto my voice, when I cry unto thee.

Be pleased, O Yahweh, to deliver me. O Yahweh, hurry to help me.

and do not hide your face from your servant. Because I am in trouble, answer me quickly.

But I [am] poor and needy; O God hasten to me. You [are] my help and my deliverer. O Yahweh, do not delay.

O God, do not be far from me. My God, hurry to help me.

Quickly answer me, O Yahweh; my spirit fails. Do not hide your face from me, or I will become like [those] descending to [the] pit.

And why do you not pardon my transgression and take away my guilt? For now I shall lie in the dust, and you will seek me, but {I will be no more}."

Let my prayer come before you; incline your ear to my cry.
