4. Therefore my spirit is overwhelmed within me;my heart within me is desolate.
5. I remember the days of old;I meditate on all Your works;I consider the work of Your hands.
6. I stretch forth my hands unto You;my soul thirsts after You as a thirsty land. Selah
7. Respond to me quickly, O Lord,my spirit fails;do not hide Your face from me,lest I be like those who go down into the pit.
8. Cause me to hear Your lovingkindness in the morning;for in You I have my trust;cause me to know the way I should walk,for I lift up my soul unto You.
9. Deliver me, O Lord, from my enemies;I flee unto You for my protection.
