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.
Cause me to hear your loyal love in the morning,
for I trust you.
Cause me to know the way that I should go,
for I lift up my soul to you.
Deliver me from my enemies, O Yahweh.
I take refuge in you.[a]

Let the morning bring me word of your unfailing love,(D)
    for I have put my trust in you.
Show me the way(E) I should go,
    for to you I entrust my life.(F)
Rescue me(G) from my enemies,(H) Lord,
