Psalms 86

1 A Prayer of David. Incline, O Jehovah, Thine ear, 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 Keep my soul, for I [am] pious, Save Thy servant — who is trusting to Thee, O Thou, my God.

Preserue thou my soule, for I am mercifull: my God, saue thou thy seruant, that trusteth in thee.

3 Favour me, O Lord, for to Thee I call all the day.

Be mercifull vnto me, O Lord: for I crie vpon thee continually.

4 Rejoice the soul of Thy servant, For unto Thee, O Lord, my soul I lift up.

Reioyce the soule of thy seruant: for vnto thee, O Lord, doe I lift vp my soule.

5 For Thou, Lord, [art] good and forgiving. And abundant in kindness to all calling Thee.

For thou, Lord, art good and mercifull, and of great kindenes vnto all them, that call vpon thee.

6 Hear, O Jehovah, my prayer, And attend to the voice of my supplications.

Giue eare, Lord, vnto my prayer, and hearken to the voyce of my supplication.

7 In a day of my distress I call Thee, For Thou dost answer me.

In the day of my trouble I will call vpon thee: for thou hearest me.

8 There is none like Thee among the gods, O Lord, And like Thy works there are none.

Among the gods there is none like thee, O Lord, and there is none that can doe like thy workes.

9 All nations that Thou hast made Come and bow themselves before Thee, O Lord, And give honour to Thy name.

All nations, whome thou hast made, shall come and worship before thee, O Lord, and shall glorifie thy Name.

10 For great [art] Thou, and doing wonders, Thou [art] God Thyself alone.

For thou art great and doest wonderous things: thou art God alone.

11 Show me, O Jehovah, Thy way, I walk in Thy truth, My heart doth rejoice to fear Thy 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 confess Thee, O Lord my God, with all my heart, And I honour Thy name to the age.

I wil prayse thee, O Lord my God, with all mine heart: yea, I wil glorifie thy Name for euer.

13 For Thy kindness [is] great toward me, And Thou hast 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 O God, the proud have risen up against me, And a company of the terrible sought my soul, And have not placed Thee 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 And Thou, O Lord, [art] God, merciful and gracious, Slow to anger, and abundant in kindness and truth.

But thou, O Lord, art a pitifull God and mercifull, slowe to anger and great in kindenes and trueth.

16 Look unto me, and favour me, Give Thy strength to Thy servant, And give salvation to a son of Thine handmaid.

Turne vnto me, and haue mercy vpon me: giue thy strength vnto thy seruant, and saue the sonne of thine handmayd.

17 Do with me a sign for good, And those hating me see and are ashamed, For Thou, O Jehovah, hast helped me, Yea, Thou hast 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.
