Psalms 86

Bow down thine ear, O Jehovah, and answer me; For I am poor and needy.Preserve my soul; for I am godly: O thou my God, save thy servant that trusteth in thee.Be merciful unto me, O Lord; For unto thee do I cry all the day long.Rejoice the soul of thy servant; For unto thee, O Lord, do I lift up my soul.For thou, Lord, art good, and ready to forgive, And abundant in lovingkindness unto all them that call upon thee.Give ear, O Jehovah, unto my prayer; And hearken unto the voice of my supplications.In the day of my trouble I will call upon thee; For thou wilt answer me.There is none like unto thee among the gods, O Lord; Neither [are there any works] like unto thy works.All nations whom thou hast made shall come and worship before thee, O Lord; And they shall glorify thy name.For thou art great, and doest wondrous things: Thou art God alone.Teach me thy way, O Jehovah; I will walk in thy truth: Unite my heart to fear thy name.I will praise thee, O Lord my God, with my whole heart; And I will glorify thy name for evermore.For great is thy lovingkindness toward me; And thou hast delivered my soul from the lowest Sheol.O God, the proud are risen up against me, And a company of violent men have sought after my soul, And have not set thee before them.But thou, O Lord, art a God merciful and gracious, Slow to anger, and abundant in lovingkindness and truth.Oh turn unto me, and have mercy upon me; Give thy strength unto thy servant, And save the son of thy handmaid.Show me a token for good, That they who hate me may see it, and be put to shame, Because thou, Jehovah, hast helped me, and comforted me. Psalm 87 A Psalm of the sons of Korah; a Song.
