Psalms 86 (NASB)

¹A Prayer of David. Incline Your ear, O LORD, [and] answer me; For I am afflicted and needy.

²Preserve my soul, for I am a godly man; O You my God, save Your servant who trusts in You.

³Be gracious to me, O Lord, For to You I cry all day long.

⁴Make glad the soul of Your servant, For to You, O Lord, I lift up my soul.

⁵For You, Lord, are good, and ready to forgive, And abundant in lovingkindness to all who call upon You.

⁶Give ear, O LORD, to my prayer; And give heed to the voice of my supplications!

⁷In the day of my trouble I shall call upon You, For You will answer me.

⁸There is no one like You among the gods, O Lord, Nor are there any works like Yours.

⁹All nations whom You have made shall come and worship before You, O Lord, And they shall glorify Your name.

¹⁰For You are great and do wondrous deeds; You alone are God.

¹¹Teach me Your way, O LORD; I will walk in Your truth; Unite my heart to fear Your name.

¹²I will give thanks to You, O Lord my God, with all my heart, And will glorify Your name forever.

¹³For Your lovingkindness toward me is great, And You have delivered my soul from the depths of Sheol.

¹⁴O God, arrogant men have risen up against me, And a band of violent men have sought my life, And they have not set You before them.

¹⁵But You, O Lord, are a God merciful and gracious, Slow to anger and abundant in lovingkindness and truth.

¹⁶Turn to me, and be gracious to me; Oh grant Your strength to Your servant, And save the son of Your handmaid.

¹⁷Show me a sign for good, That those who hate me may see [it] and be ashamed, Because You, O LORD, have helped me and comforted me.
