# Psalm 86 A Prayer of David.
<a id="1" name="1"></a>
1. Incline your ear, O LORD, and answer me, for I am poor and needy.
<a id="2" name="2"></a>
2. Preserve my life, for I am godly; save your servant, who trusts in you—you are my God.
<a id="3" name="3"></a>
3. Be gracious to me, O Lord, for to you do I cry all the day.
<a id="4" name="4"></a>
4. Gladden the soul of your servant, for to you, O Lord, do I lift up my soul.
<a id="5" name="5"></a>
5. For you, O Lord, are good and forgiving, abounding in steadfast love to all who call upon you.
<a id="6" name="6"></a>
6. Give ear, O LORD, to my prayer; listen to my plea for grace.
<a id="7" name="7"></a>
7. In the day of my trouble I call upon you, for you answer me.
<a id="8" name="8"></a>
8. There is none like you among the gods, O Lord, nor are there any works like yours.
<a id="9" name="9"></a>
9. All the nations you have made shall come and worship before you, O Lord, and shall glorify your name.
<a id="10" name="10"></a>
10. For you are great and do wondrous things; you alone are God.
<a id="11" name="11"></a>
11. Teach me your way, O LORD, that I may walk in your truth; unite my heart to fear your name.
<a id="12" name="12"></a>
12. I give thanks to you, O Lord my God, with my whole heart, and I will glorify your name forever.
<a id="13" name="13"></a>
13. For great is your steadfast love toward me; you have delivered my soul from the depths of Sheol.
<a id="14" name="14"></a>
14. O God, insolent men have risen up against me; a band of ruthless men seeks my life, and they do not set you before them.
<a id="15" name="15"></a>
15. But you, O Lord, are a God merciful and gracious, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness.
<a id="16" name="16"></a>
16. Turn to me and be gracious to me; give your strength to your servant, and save the son of your maidservant.
<a id="17" name="17"></a>
17. Show me a sign of your favor, that those who hate me may see and be put to shame because you, LORD, have helped me and comforted me.
(ESV)
