Psalms 86 — TOJB

86Verse 1(A tefillah of Dovid)1 Incline Thine ear, Hashem; hear me;
for I am ani (poor) and evyon (needy).
^{Verse 2}Be shomer over my nefesh;
for I am chasid; O Thou Elohai, save Thy eved that trusteth in Thee.
^{Verse 3}Channeni (be merciful) unto me, Adonoi;
for I cry unto Thee kol hayom.
^{Verse 4}Samei'ach (rejoice) the nefesh of Thy eved;
for unto Thee, Adonoi, do I lift up my nefesh.
^{Verse 5}For Thou, Adonoi, art tov, and ready to forgive;
and plenteous in chesed unto all them that call upon Thee.
^{Verse 6}Give ear, Hashem, unto my tefillah (prayer);
and attend to the voice of my techinnot (supplications).
^{Verse 7}In my yom tzoros I will call upon Thee;
for Thou wilt answer me.^{Verse 8}Ein kamocha vaelohim (there is none like Thee among the g-ds), Adonoi;
nor are there any ma'asim like Thine.
^{Verse 9}Kol Goyim whom Thou hast made
shall come and worship before Thee, Adonoi;
and shall glorify Shimcha.
^{Verse 10}For Thou art gadol, and doest nifla'ot (wondrous things);
Thou alone art Elohim.
^{Verse 11}Teach me Thy Derech, Hashem;
I will walk in Thy emes;
Yachad (make undivided) levavi (my heart) to fear Thy Shem.
^{Verse 12}I will praise Thee, Adonoi Elohai, with all my lev;
and I will glorify Shimecha l'olam.
^{Verse 13}For gadol is Thy chesed toward me;
and Thou hast saved my nefesh from the lowermost Sheol.^{Verse 14}O Elohim, the zedim (arrogant ones, proud, insolent ones) are risen up against me,
and the adat aritzim (band of violent men) seek my nefesh;
and have not set Thee before them.
^{Verse 15}But Thou, Adonoi, art El Rachum and Channun,
slow to anger, and plenteous in chesed and emes.
^{Verse 16}O turn unto me, and be gracious upon me;
give Thy oz (strength) unto Thy eved,
and save the ben amatecha (the son of Thy handmaid).
^{Verse 17}Show me an ot (sign) for tovah;
that they which hate me may see it, and be put to shame;
because Thou, Hashem, hast helped me, and comforted me.
