Psalms 86 — NWB

86Verse 1A Prayer of David. Bow down thy ear, O LORD, hear me: for I am poor and needy.^{Verse 2}Preserve my soul; for I am holy: O thou my God, save thy servant that trusteth in thee.^{Verse 3}Be merciful to me, O LORD: for I cry to thee daily.^{Verse 4}Rejoice the soul of thy servant: for to thee, O LORD, do I lift up my soul.^{Verse 5}For thou, LORD, art good, and ready to forgive; and abundant in mercy to all them that call upon thee.^{Verse 6}Give ear, O LORD, to my prayer; and attend to the voice of my supplications.^{Verse 7}In the day of my trouble I will call upon thee: for thou wilt answer me.^{Verse 8}Among the gods there is none like thee, O LORD; neither are there any works like thy works.^{Verse 9}All nations whom thou hast made shall come and worship before thee, O LORD; and shall glorify thy name.^{Verse 10}For thou art great, and doest wondrous things: thou art God alone.^{Verse 11}Teach me thy way, O LORD; I will walk in thy truth: unite my heart to fear thy name.^{Verse 12}I will praise thee, O LORD my God, with all my heart: and I will glorify thy name for evermore.^{Verse 13}For great is thy mercy towards me: and thou hast delivered my soul from the lowest hell.^{Verse 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.^{Verse 15}But thou, O LORD, art a God full of compassion, and gracious; long-suffering, and abundant in mercy and truth.^{Verse 16}O turn to me, and have mercy upon me; give thy strength to thy servant, and save the son of thy handmaid.^{Verse 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.
