Psalm 86 A Prayer of David.

  1. Incline your ear, O LORD, and answer me, for I am poor and needy.
  2. Preserve my life, for I am godly; save your servant, who trusts in you—you are my God.
  3. Be gracious to me, O Lord, for to you do I cry all the day.
  4. Gladden the soul of your servant, for to you, O Lord, do I lift up my soul.
  5. For you, O Lord, are good and forgiving, abounding in steadfast love to all who call upon you.
  6. Give ear, O LORD, to my prayer; listen to my plea for grace.
  7. In the day of my trouble I call upon you, for you answer me.
  8. There is none like you among the gods, O Lord, nor are there any works like yours.
  9. All the nations you have made shall come and worship before you, O Lord, and shall glorify your name.
  10. For you are great and do wondrous things; you alone are God.
  11. Teach me your way, O LORD, that I may walk in your truth; unite my heart to fear your name.
  12. I give thanks to you, O Lord my God, with my whole heart, and I will glorify your name forever.
  13. For great is your steadfast love toward me; you have delivered my soul from the depths of Sheol.
  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.
  15. But you, O Lord, are a God merciful and gracious, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness.
  16. Turn to me and be gracious to me; give your strength to your servant, and save the son of your maidservant.
  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.
