Context of Psalms 143:10
8Cause me to hear thy loving-kindness in the morning, for in thee do I confide; make me to know the way wherein I should walk, for unto thee do I lift up my soul. 9Deliver me, O Jehovah, from mine enemies: unto thee do I flee for refuge. Teach me to do thy will; for thou art my God: let thy good Spirit lead me in a plain country. 11Revive me, O Jehovah, for thy name's sake; in thy righteousness bring my soul out of trouble; 12And in thy loving-kindness cut off mine enemies, and destroy all them that oppress my soul: for I am thy servant.
