Psalms 86:1-13

¹A Prayer of David. Incline, O Jehovah, Thine ear, Answer me, for I am poor and needy.

²Keep my soul, for I am pious, Save Thy servant — who is trusting to Thee, O Thou, my God.

³Favour me, O Lord, for to Thee I call all the day.

⁴Rejoice the soul of Thy servant, For unto Thee, O Lord, my soul I lift up.

⁵For Thou, Lord, art good and forgiving. And abundant in kindness to all calling Thee.

⁶Hear, O Jehovah, my prayer, And attend to the voice of my supplications.

⁷In a day of my distress I call Thee, For Thou dost answer me.

⁸There is none like Thee among the gods, O Lord, And like Thy works there are none.

⁹All nations that Thou hast made Come and bow themselves before Thee, O Lord, And give honour to Thy name.

¹⁰For great art Thou, and doing wonders, Thou art God Thyself alone.

¹¹Show me, O Jehovah, Thy way, I walk in Thy truth, My heart doth rejoice to fear Thy name.

¹²I confess Thee, O Lord my God, with all my heart, And I honour Thy name to the age.

¹³For Thy kindness is great toward me, And Thou hast delivered my soul from the lowest Sheol.
