Psalms 86:1-9

¹A Prayer of David. Incline thine ear, Jehovah, answer me; for I am afflicted and needy.

²Keep my soul, for I am godly; O thou my God, save thy servant who confideth in thee.

³Be gracious unto me, O Lord; for unto thee do I call all the day.

⁴Rejoice the soul of thy servant; for unto thee, Lord, do I lift up my soul.

⁵For thou, Lord, art good, and ready to forgive, and art of great loving-kindness unto all that call upon thee.

⁶Give ear, O Jehovah, unto my prayer, and attend to the voice of my supplications.

⁷In the day of my distress I will call upon thee, for thou wilt answer me.

⁸Among the gods there is none like unto thee, Lord, and there is nothing like unto thy works.

⁹All nations whom thou hast made shall come and worship before thee, O Lord, and shall glorify thy name.
