86:1  A Prayer of David. Incline thy ear, O Lord, and answer me, for I am poor and needy.
86:2  Preserve my life, for I am godly; save thy servant who trusts in thee. Thou art my God;
86:3  be gracious to me, O Lord, for to thee do I cry all the day.
86:4  Gladden the soul of thy servant, for to thee, O Lord, do I lift up my soul.
86:5  For thou, O Lord, art good and forgiving, abounding in steadfast love to all who call on thee.
86:6  Give ear, O Lord, to my prayer; hearken to my cry of supplication.
86:7  In the day of my trouble I call on thee, for thou dost answer me.
86:8  There is none like thee among the gods, O Lord, nor are there any works like thine.
86:9  All the nations thou hast made shall come and bow down before thee, O Lord, and shall glorify thy name.
86:10  For thou art great and doest wondrous things, thou alone art God.
86:11  Teach me thy way, O Lord, that I may walk in thy truth; unite my heart to fear thy name.
86:12  I give thanks to thee, O Lord my God, with my whole heart, and I will glorify thy name for ever.
86:13  For great is thy steadfast love toward me; thou hast delivered my soul from the depths of Sheol.
86:14  O God, insolent men have risen up against me; a band of ruthless men seek my life, and they do not set thee before them.
86:15  But thou, O Lord, art a God merciful and gracious, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness.
86:16  Turn to me and take pity on me; give thy strength to thy servant, and save the son of thy handmaid.
86:17  Show me a sign of thy favor, that those who hate me may see and be put to shame because thou, Lord, hast helped me and comforted me.
