Psalm 143:5-7
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
5 I remember the days of old;
I ponder all your deeds;
the works of your hands I recall.(A)
6 I stretch out my hands toward you,
my soul to you like a parched land.(B)
Selah
7 Hasten to answer me, Lord;
for my spirit fails me.
Do not hide your face from me,
lest I become like those descending to the pit.(C)
