Psalms 86
1 A prayer of David. Incline thine eare, O Lord, and heare me: for I am poore and needy.
A Prayer. David’s. Bow down, O Yahweh, thine ear—answer me, For, oppressed and needy, am I;
2 Preserue thou my soule, for I am mercifull: my God, saue thou thy seruant, that trusteth in thee.
O guard my life, For, a man of lovingkindness, am I, —Save thy servant, O thou my God, [Thy servant] who trusteth in thee;
3 Be mercifull vnto me, O Lord: for I crie vpon thee continually.
Show me favour, O My Lord, For, unto thee, do I cry, all the day;
4 Reioyce the soule of thy seruant: for vnto thee, O Lord, doe I lift vp my soule.
Rejoice the soul of thy servant, For, unto thee, O My Lord, my soul, do I lift.
5 For thou, Lord, art good and mercifull, and of great kindenes vnto all them, that call vpon thee.
For, thou, O My Lord, art good and forgiving, And abundant in lovingkindness, to all who call upon thee.
6 Giue eare, Lord, vnto my prayer, and hearken to the voyce of my supplication.
Give ear, O Yahweh, unto my prayer, And attend unto the voice of my supplications.
7 In the day of my trouble I will call vpon thee: for thou hearest me.
In the day of my distress, will I call upon thee, For thou wilt answer me.
8 Among the gods there is none like thee, O Lord, and there is none that can doe like thy workes.
There is none like unto thee, among the gods, O My Lord, And nothing like thy works.
9 All nations, whome thou hast made, shall come and worship before thee, O Lord, and shall glorifie thy Name.
All nations whom thou hast made, Shall come in and bow down before thee, O My Lord, That they may glorify thy Name.
10 For thou art great and doest wonderous things: thou art God alone.
For great thou art, and doest wondrous things, Thou, O God, of thyself alone.
11 Teach me thy way, O Lord, and I will walke in thy trueth: knit mine heart vnto thee, that I may feare thy Name.
Point out to me, O Yahweh, thy way, I will walk steadfastly in thy truth, My heart will rejoice to revere thy Name.
12 I wil prayse thee, O Lord my God, with all mine heart: yea, I wil glorifie thy Name for euer.
I will give thee thanks, Adonay, my God, with all my heart, And will glorify thy Name unto times age-abiding.
13 For great is thy mercie toward me, and thou hast deliuered my soule from the lowest graue. (Sheol h7585)
For, thy lovingkindness, is great towards me, And thou hast rescued my soul from Hades beneath. (Sheol h7585)
14 O God, the proude are risen against me, and the assemblies of violent men haue sought my soule, and haue not set thee before them.
O God, the insolent, have arisen against me, And, the assembly of tyrants, have sought my life, And have not set thee before them.
15 But thou, O Lord, art a pitifull God and mercifull, slowe to anger and great in kindenes and trueth.
But, thou, O My Lord, art, A God of compassion and favour, Slow to anger, and abundant in lovingkindness a faithfulness.
16 Turne vnto me, and haue mercy vpon me: giue thy strength vnto thy seruant, and saue the sonne of thine handmayd.
Turn thou unto me, and show me favour, —Give thy strength to thy servant, And save the son of thy handmaid.
17 Shew a token of thy goodnes towarde me, that they which hate me, may see it, and be ashamed, because thou, O Lord, hast holpen me and comforted me.
Perform with me a token for good, —That they who hate me may see and be ashamed, In that, thou, Yahweh, hast helped me and comforted me.
