Ps 86
1
A Prayer of David. Incline Thine ear, O LORD, and answer me; for I am poor and needy.
2
Keep my soul, for I am godly; O Thou my God, save Thy servant that trusteth in Thee.
3
Be gracious unto me, O Lord; for unto Thee do I cry all the day.
4
Rejoice the soul of Thy servant; for unto Thee, O Lord, do I lift up my soul.
5
For Thou, Lord, art good, and ready to pardon, and plenteous in mercy unto all them
that call upon Thee.
6
Give ear, O LORD, unto my prayer; and attend unto the voice of my supplications.
7
In the day of my trouble I call upon Thee; for Thou wilt answer me.
8
There is none like unto Thee among the gods, O Lord, and there are no works like Thine.
9
All nations whom Thou hast made shall come and prostrate themselves before Thee, O
Lord; and they shall glorify Thy name.
10
For Thou art great, and doest wondrous things; Thou art God alone.
11
Teach me, O LORD, Thy way, that I may walk in Thy truth; make one my heart to fear
Thy name.
12
I will thank Thee, O Lord my God, with my whole heart; and I will glorify Thy name
for evermore.
13
For great is Thy mercy toward me; and Thou hast delivered my soul from the lowest
nether-world.
14
O God, the proud are risen up against me, and the company of violent men have sought
after my soul, and have not set Thee before them.
15
But Thou, O Lord, art a God full of compassion and gracious, slow to anger, and plenteous
in mercy and truth.
16
O turn unto me, and be gracious unto me; give Thy strength unto Thy servant, and save
the son of Thy handmaid.
17
Work in my behalf a sign for good; that they that hate me may see it, and be put to
shame, because Thou, LORD, hast helped me, and comforted me.
