86:1 A Prayer of David. Incline Your ear, O Yahweh, and answer me; For I am afflicted and needy.
86:2 Keep my soul, for I am a holy one; O You my God, save Your slave who trusts in You.
86:3 Be gracious to me, O Lord, For to You I call all day long.
86:4 Make glad the soul of Your slave, For to You, O Lord, I lift up my soul.
86:5 For You, Lord, are good, and by nature forgiving, And abundant in lovingkindness to all who call upon You.
86:6 Give ear, O Yahweh, to my prayer; And give heed to the voice of my supplications!
86:7 In the day of my distress I shall call upon You, For You will answer me.
86:8 There is no one like You among the gods, O Lord, Nor are there any works like Yours.
86:9 All nations whom You have made shall come and worship before You, O Lord, And they shall glorify Your name.
86:10 For You are great and do wondrous deeds; You alone are God.
86:11 Teach me Your way, O Yahweh; I will walk in Your truth; Unite my heart to fear Your name.
86:12 I will give thanks to You, O Lord my God, with all my heart, And will glorify Your name forever.
86:13 For Your lovingkindness toward me is great, And You have delivered my soul from Sheol below.
86:14 O God, arrogant men have risen up against me, And a band of ruthless men have sought my life, And they have not set You before them.
86:15 But You, O Lord, are a God compassionate and gracious, Slow to anger and abundant in lovingkindness and truth.
86:16 Turn to me, and be gracious to me; Oh grant Your strength to Your slave, And save the son of Your maidservant.
86:17 Show me a sign for good, That those who hate me may see it and be ashamed, Because You, O Yahweh, have helped me and comforted me.
