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 compassion, 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. |
