Psalm 142:2–3

2 Do not bring your servant into judgment,

for no one living is righteous before you.

3 The enemy pursues me,

he crushes me to the ground;

he makes me dwell in the darkness

like those long dead.

2 Enter not into judgment with your servant,

for no one living is righteous before you.

3 For the enemy has pursued my soul;

he has crushed my life to the ground;

he has made me sit in darkness like those long dead.

2 And enter not into judgment with thy servant:

For in thy sight shall no man living be justified.

3 For the enemy hath persecuted my soul;

He hath smitten my life down to the ground;

He hath made me to dwell in darkness, as those that have been long dead.

2 Don’t put your servant on trial,

for no one is innocent before you.

3 My enemy has chased me.

He has knocked me to the ground

and forces me to live in darkness like those in the grave.

2 Do not enter into judgment with Your servant,

For in Your sight no one living is righteous.

3 For the enemy has persecuted my soul;

He has crushed my life to the ground;

He has made me dwell in darkness,

Like those who have long been dead.

2 Don’t judge me, your servant,

because no one alive is right before you.

3 My enemies are chasing me;

they crushed me to the ground.

They made me live in darkness

like those long dead.

2 And enter not into judgment with thy servant;

For in thy sight no man living is righteous.

3 For the enemy hath persecuted my soul;

He hath smitten my life down to the ground:

He hath made me to dwell in dark places, as those that have been long dead.

2 And enter not into judgment with thy servant; for in thy sight no man living shall be justified. 3 For the enemy persecuteth my soul: he hath crushed my life down to the earth; he hath made me to dwell in dark places, as those that have been long dead.

2 Do not take me to court for judgment, 

because there is no one alive 

who is righteous in your presence. 

3 The enemy has pursued me. 

He has ground my life into the dirt. 

He has made me live in dark places 

like those who have died long ago. 

2 Do not bring Your servant into judgment,

for no one alive is righteous in Your sight.

3 For the enemy has pursued me,

crushing me to the ground,

making me live in darkness

like those long dead.

2 Do not enter into judgment with your servant,

for no one living is righteous before you.

3 For the enemy has pursued me,

crushing my life to the ground,

making me sit in darkness like those long dead.

2 And do not enter into judgment with your servant,

because no one alive is righteous before you.

3 For the enemy has pursued my soul;

he has crushed my life to the ground.

He has made me dwell in dark places

like those long dead.

2 Don’t take me to court and judge me,

because in your eyes no living person does what is right.

3 My enemies chase me.

They crush me down to the ground.

They make me live in darkness

like those who died long ago.

2 And do not enter into judgment with Your servant,

For in Your sight no man living is righteous.

3 For the enemy has persecuted my soul;

He has crushed my life to the ground;

He has made me dwell in dark places, like those who have long been dead.
