86:1 A prayer of David. Incline, O Yahweh, your ear and answer me, because I am poor and needy.
86:2 Watch over my life because I am faithful. You are my God; save your servant. I am the one who trusts you.
86:3 Be gracious to me, O Lord, because I call to you all day long.
86:4 Make glad the soul of your servant, because I desire you, O Lord.
86:5 For you, O Lord, are good and forgiving, and abundant in loyal love for all who call to you.
86:6 Heed, O Yahweh, my prayer, and attend to the voice of my supplications.
86:7 In the day of my trouble I call to you, because you answer me.
86:8 There is none like you among the gods, O Lord, and there are no works like yours.
86:9 All the nations that you have made will come and bow down before you, O Lord, and glorify your name.
86:10 For you are great and doing wondrous things; you alone are God.
86:11 Teach me, O Yahweh, your way, that I may walk in your truth. Unite my heart to fear your name.
86:12 I will give you thanks, O Lord my God, with all my heart, and glorify your name forever,
86:13 because your loyal love is great toward me, and you will have delivered my life from Sheol below.
86:14 O God, arrogant men have risen up against me, even a gang of ruthless men seek my life, but they do not set you before them.
86:15 But you, O Lord, are a compassionate and gracious God, slow to anger and abundant in loyal love and faithfulness.
86:16 Turn to me and be gracious to me. Give your strength to your servant, and grant victory to the son of your maidservant.
86:17 Do a sign that benefits me, that those who hate me may see and be put to shame, because you, O Yahweh, have helped me and comforted me.
