6My hands are stretched out to you: my soul is turned to you, like a land in need of water. (Selah.)
7Be quick in answering me, O Lord, for the strength of my spirit is gone: let me see your face, so that I may not be like those who go down into the underworld.
8Let the story of your mercy come to me in the morning, for my hope is in you: give me knowledge of the way in which I am to go; for my soul is lifted up to you.
9O Lord, take me out of the hands of my haters; my soul is waiting for you.
10Give me teaching so that I may do your pleasure; for you are my God: let your good Spirit be my guide into the land of righteousness.
11Give me life, O Lord, because of your name; in your righteousness take my soul out of trouble.
12And in your mercy put an end to my haters, and send destruction on all those who are against my soul; for I am your servant.
