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. |
