Psalms 86
1 [A Prayer by David.] Hear, LORD, and answer me, for I am poor and needy.
A prayer of David. Incline thine eare, O Lord, and heare me: for I am poore and needy.
2 Preserve my soul, for I am godly. You, my God, save your servant who trusts in you.
Preserue thou my soule, for I am mercifull: my God, saue thou thy seruant, that trusteth in thee.
3 Be merciful to me, LORD, for I call to you all day long.
Be mercifull vnto me, O Lord: for I crie vpon thee continually.
4 Bring joy to the soul of your servant, for to you, LORD, do I lift up my soul.
Reioyce the soule of thy seruant: for vnto thee, O Lord, doe I lift vp my soule.
5 For you, LORD, are good, and ready to forgive; abundant in loving kindness to all those who call on you.
For thou, Lord, art good and mercifull, and of great kindenes vnto all them, that call vpon thee.
6 Hear, LORD, my prayer. Listen to the voice of my petitions.
Giue eare, Lord, vnto my prayer, and hearken to the voyce of my supplication.
7 In the day of my trouble I will call on you, for you will answer me.
In the day of my trouble I will call vpon thee: for thou hearest me.
8 There is no one like you among the gods, LORD, nor any deeds like your deeds.
Among the gods there is none like thee, O Lord, and there is none that can doe like thy workes.
9 All nations you have made will come and worship before you, LORD. They shall glorify your name.
All nations, whome thou hast made, shall come and worship before thee, O Lord, and shall glorifie thy Name.
10 For you are great, and do wondrous things. You are God alone.
For thou art great and doest wonderous things: thou art God alone.
11 Teach me your way, LORD. I will walk in your truth. Make my heart undivided to fear your name.
Teach me thy way, O Lord, and I will walke in thy trueth: knit mine heart vnto thee, that I may feare thy Name.
12 I will praise you, Lord my God, with my whole heart. I will glorify your name forevermore.
I wil prayse thee, O Lord my God, with all mine heart: yea, I wil glorifie thy Name for euer.
13 For your loving kindness is great toward me. You have delivered my soul from the lowest Sheol. (Sheol h7585)
For great is thy mercie toward me, and thou hast deliuered my soule from the lowest graue. (Sheol h7585)
14 God, the proud have risen up against me. A company of violent men have sought after my soul, and they do not hold regard for you before them.
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.
15 But you, LORD, are a merciful and gracious God, slow to anger, and abundant in loving kindness and truth.
But thou, O Lord, art a pitifull God and mercifull, slowe to anger and great in kindenes and trueth.
16 Turn to me, and have mercy on me. Give your strength to your servant. Save the son of your handmaid.
Turne vnto me, and haue mercy vpon me: giue thy strength vnto thy seruant, and saue the sonne of thine handmayd.
17 Show me a sign of your goodness, that those who hate me may see it, and be shamed, because you, LORD, have helped me, and comforted me.
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.
