Psalms
Chapter Eighty-Six
<<A Prayer of David.>>
1 ¶ Bow down thine
ear, O LORD, hear me: for I am poor and needy.
2 Preserve my soul; for I am holy: O thou my God, save thy servant that trusteth
in thee.
3 Be merciful unto me, O Lord: for I cry unto thee daily.
4 Rejoice the soul of thy servant: for unto thee, O Lord, do I lift up my soul.
5 For thou, Lord, art good, and ready to forgive; and plenteous in mercy unto
all them that call upon thee.
6 Give ear, O LORD, unto my prayer; and attend to the voice of my supplications.
7 In the day of my trouble I will call upon thee: for thou wilt answer me.
8 ¶ Among the gods there is none like unto thee, O Lord; neither are there
any works like unto thy works.
9 All nations whom thou hast made shall come and worship before thee, O Lord;
and shall glorify thy name.
10 For thou art great, and doest wondrous things: thou art God alone.
11 Teach me thy way, O LORD; I will walk in thy truth: unite my heart to fear
thy name.
12 I will praise thee, O Lord my God, with all my heart: and I will glorify
thy name for evermore.
13 For great is thy mercy toward me: and thou hast delivered my soul from the
lowest hell.
14 O God, the proud are risen against me, and the assemblies of violent men
have sought after my soul; and have not set thee before them.
15 But thou, O Lord, art a God full of compassion, and gracious, longsuffering,
and plenteous in mercy and truth.
16 O turn unto me, and have mercy upon me; give thy strength unto thy servant,
and save the son of thine handmaid.
17 Shew me a token for good; that they which hate me may see it, and be ashamed:
because thou, LORD, hast holpen me, and comforted me.
