1A prayer of David. Incline your ear, Lord, and answer me, for I am afflicted and needy.
2Guard me, for I am loyal: save your servant, who trusts in you.
3Lord, be gracious to me, for you are my God; I cry to you all the day.
4Gladden the heart of your servant; for to you, Lord, I set my hope.
5For you, Lord, are good and forgiving, rich in love towards all who call on you.
6Listen, O Lord, to my prayer; attend to my plea for mercy.
7In the day of my trouble I call on you, with assurance that you will answer me.
8None of the gods is like you, Lord, nor are any works like yours.
9All the nations you have made will come and bow down before you, giving glory, O Lord, to your name.
10For great are you, and a doer of wonders; you alone are God.
