< Psalms 86 >

1 A Prayer of David. Bow down thy ear, O LORD, hear me: for I [am] poor and needy.
תְּפִלָּה לְדָוִד הַטֵּֽה־יְהוָה אָזְנְךָ עֲנֵנִי כִּֽי־עָנִי וְאֶבְיוֹן אָֽנִי׃
2 Preserve my soul; for I [am] holy: O thou my God, save thy servant that trusteth in thee.
שָֽׁמְרָה נַפְשִׁי כִּֽי־חָסִיד אָנִי הוֹשַׁע עַבְדְּךָ אַתָּה אֱלֹהַי הַבּוֹטֵחַ אֵלֶֽיךָ׃
3 Be merciful to me, O LORD: for I cry to thee daily.
חָנֵּנִי אֲדֹנָי כִּי אֵלֶיךָ אֶקְרָא כָּל־הַיּֽוֹם׃
4 Rejoice the soul of thy servant: for to thee, O LORD, do I lift up my soul.
שַׂמֵּחַ נֶפֶשׁ עַבְדֶּךָ כִּי אֵלֶיךָ אֲדֹנָי נַפְשִׁי אֶשָּֽׂא׃
5 For thou, LORD, [art] good, and ready to forgive; and abundant in mercy to all them that call upon thee.
כִּֽי־אַתָּה אֲדֹנָי טוֹב וְסַלָּח וְרַב־חֶסֶד לְכָל־קֹרְאֶֽיךָ׃
6 Give ear, O LORD, to my prayer; and attend to the voice of my supplications.
הַאֲזִינָה יְהוָה תְּפִלָּתִי וְהַקְשִׁיבָה בְּקוֹל תַּחֲנוּנוֹתָֽי׃
7 In the day of my trouble I will call upon thee: for thou wilt answer me.
בְּיוֹם צָרָתִי אֶקְרָאֶךָּ כִּי תַעֲנֵֽנִי׃
8 Among the gods [there is] none like thee, O LORD; neither [are there any works] like thy works.
אֵין־כָּמוֹךָ בָאֱלֹהִים ׀ אֲדֹנָי וְאֵין כְּֽמַעֲשֶֽׂיךָ׃
9 All nations whom thou hast made shall come and worship before thee, O LORD; and shall glorify thy name.
כָּל־גּוֹיִם ׀ אֲשֶׁר עָשִׂיתָ יָבוֹאוּ ׀ וְיִשְׁתַּחֲווּ לְפָנֶיךָ אֲדֹנָי וִֽיכַבְּדוּ לִשְׁמֶֽךָ׃
10 For thou [art] great, and doest wondrous things: thou [art] God alone.
כִּֽי־גָדוֹל אַתָּה וְעֹשֵׂה נִפְלָאוֹת אַתָּה אֱלֹהִים לְבַדֶּֽךָ׃
11 Teach me thy way, O LORD; I will walk in thy truth: unite my heart to fear thy name.
הוֹרֵנִי יְהוָה ׀ דַּרְכֶּךָ אֲהַלֵּךְ בַּאֲמִתֶּךָ יַחֵד לְבָבִי לְיִרְאָה שְׁמֶֽךָ׃
12 I will praise thee, O LORD my God, with all my heart: and I will glorify thy name for evermore.
אוֹדְךָ ׀ אֲדֹנָי אֱלֹהַי בְּכָל־לְבָבִי וַאֲכַבְּדָה שִׁמְךָ לְעוֹלָֽם׃
13 For great [is] thy mercy towards me: and thou hast delivered my soul from the lowest hell. (Sheol h7585)
כִּֽי־חַסְדְּךָ גָּדוֹל עָלָי וְהִצַּלְתָּ נַפְשִׁי מִשְּׁאוֹל תַּחְתִּיּֽ͏ָה׃ (Sheol h7585)
14 O God, the proud have risen against me, and the assemblies of violent [men] have sought after my soul; and have not set thee before them.
אֱלֹהִים ׀ זֵדִים קָֽמוּ־עָלַי וַעֲדַת עָרִיצִים בִּקְשׁוּ נַפְשִׁי וְלֹא שָׂמוּךָ לְנֶגְדָּֽם׃
15 But thou, O LORD, [art] a God full of compassion, and gracious; long-suffering, and abundant in mercy and truth.
וְאַתָּה אֲדֹנָי אֵל־רַחוּם וְחַנּוּן אֶרֶךְ אַפַּיִם וְרַב־חֶסֶד וֶאֱמֶֽת׃
16 O turn to me, and have mercy upon me; give thy strength to thy servant, and save the son of thy handmaid.
פְּנֵה אֵלַי וְחָנֵּנִי תְּנָֽה־עֻזְּךָ לְעַבְדֶּךָ וְהוֹשִׁיעָה לְבֶן־אֲמָתֶֽךָ׃
17 Show me a token for good; that they who hate me may see [it], and be ashamed: because thou, LORD, hast helped me, and comforted me.
עֲשֵֽׂה־עִמִּי אוֹת לְטוֹבָה וְיִרְאוּ שֹׂנְאַי וְיֵבֹשׁוּ כִּֽי־אַתָּה יְהוָה עֲזַרְתַּנִי וְנִחַמְתָּֽנִי׃
