Chapter 86 | |
1 | Bow down thine ear, O LORD, hear me: for I am poor and needy.  | 
2 | Preserve my soul; for I am holy: O thou my God, save thy servant that trusteth in thee.  | 
 
3 | Be merciful unto me, O Lord: for I cry unto thee daily.  | 
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 forgive; and plenteous in mercy unto all them that call upon thee.  | 
6 | Give ear, O LORD, unto my prayer; and attend to the voice of my supplications.  | 
7 | In the day of my trouble I will call upon thee: for thou wilt answer me.  | 
8 | Among the gods there is none like unto thee, O Lord; neither are there any works like unto thy works.  | 
9 | All nations whom thou hast made shall come and worship before thee, O Lord; and shall glorify thy name.  | 
10 |  
For thou art great, and doest wondrous things: thou art God alone.  | 
11 | Teach me thy way, O LORD; I will walk in thy truth: unite my heart to fear thy name.  | 
12 | I will praise thee, O Lord my God, with all my 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 hell.  | 
 
14 | O God, the proud are risen against me, and the assemblies 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 1compassion, and gracious, longsuffering, and
plenteous in mercy and truth.
  | 
16 | O turn unto me, and have mercy upon me; give thy strength unto thy servant, and save the son of thine handmaid.  | 
17 | Shew me a token for good; that they which hate me may see it, and be ashamed: because thou, LORD, hast holpen me, and comforted me.  |
