1A Prayer of David. Bow down thy ear, O LORD, hear me: for I am poor and needy.
2Preserve my soul; for I am holy: O thou my God, save thy servant that trusteth in thee.
3Be merciful to me, O LORD: for I cry to thee daily.
4Rejoice the soul of thy servant: for to thee, O LORD, do I lift up my soul.
5For thou, LORD, art good, and ready to forgive; and abundant in mercy to all them that call upon thee.
6Give ear, O LORD, to my prayer; and attend to the voice of my supplications.
7In the day of my trouble I will call upon thee: for thou wilt answer me.
8Among the gods there is none like thee, O LORD; neither are there any works like thy works.
9All nations whom thou hast made shall come and worship before thee, O LORD; and shall glorify thy name.
