Psalms 86

A Psalm of Supplication and Trust.

A Prayer of David.

11Incline Your ear, O Lord, and answer me; For I am 2afflicted and needy.23Preserve my 4soul, for I am a 5godly man; O You my God, save Your servant who 6trusts in You.3Be 7gracious to me, O Lord, For 8to You I cry all day long.4Make glad the soul of Your servant, For to You, O Lord, 9I lift up my soul.5For You, Lord, are 10good, and 11ready to forgive, And 12abundant in lovingkindness to all who call upon You.613Give ear, O Lord, to my prayer; And give heed to the voice of my supplications!7In 14the day of my trouble I shall call upon You, For 15You will answer me.8There is 16no one like You among the gods, O Lord, Nor are there any works 17like Yours.918All nations whom You have made shall come and worship before You, O Lord, And they shall glorify Your name.10For You are 19great and 20do 21wondrous deeds; You alone 22are God.

1123Teach me Your way, O Lord; I will walk in Your truth; 24Unite my heart to fear Your name.12I will 25give thanks to You, O Lord my God, with all my heart, And will glorify Your name forever.13For Your lovingkindness toward me is great, And You have 26delivered my soul from the 27depths of 28Sheol.

14O God, arrogant men have 29risen up against me, And 30a band of violent men have sought my 31life, And they have not set You before them.15But You, O Lord, are a God 32merciful and gracious, Slow to anger and abundant in lovingkindness and 33truth.1634Turn to me, and be gracious to me; Oh 35grant Your strength to Your servant, And save the 36son of Your handmaid.1737Show me a sign for good, That those who hate me may 38see it and be ashamed, Because You, O Lord, 39have helped me and comforted me.
