Psalms - Chapter 86

¹ [Prayer Of David] Listen to me, Yahweh, answer me, for I am poor and needy.

² Guard me, for I am faithful, save your servant who relies on you. You are my God,

³ take pity on me, Lord, for to you I cry all the day.

⁴ Fill your servant's heart with joy, Lord, for to you I raise up my heart.

⁵ Lord, you are kind and forgiving, rich in faithful love for all who call upon you.

⁶ Yahweh, hear my prayer, listen to the sound of my pleading.

⁷ In my day of distress I call upon you, because you answer me, Lord;

⁸ among the gods there is none to compare with you, no great deeds to compare with yours.

⁹ All nations will come and adore you, Lord, and give glory to your name.

¹⁰ For you are great and do marvellous deeds, you, God, and none other.

¹¹ Teach me, Yahweh, your ways, that I may not stray from your loyalty; let my heart's one aim be to fear your name.

¹² I thank you with all my heart, Lord my God, I will glorify your name for ever,

¹³ for your faithful love for me is so great that you have rescued me from the depths of Sheol.

¹⁴ Arrogant men, God, are rising up against me, a brutal gang is after my life, in their scheme of things you have no place.

¹⁵ But you, Lord, God of tenderness and mercy, slow to anger, rich in faithful love and loyalty,

¹⁶ turn to me and pity me. Give to your servant your strength, to the child of your servant your saving help,

¹⁷ give me a sign of your kindness.

¹⁸ My enemies will see to their shame that you, Yahweh, help and console me.
