86:1 A
Prayer
of
David.
Incline,
O
Jehovah,
Thine
ear,
Answer
me,
for
I
[am]
poor
and
needy.
86:2 Keep
my
soul,
for
I
[am]
pious,
Save
Thy
servant--who
is
trusting
to
Thee,
O
Thou,
my
God.
86:3 Favour
me,
O
Lord,
for
to
Thee
I
call
all
the
day.
86:4 Rejoice
the
soul
of
Thy
servant,
For
unto
Thee,
O
Lord,
my
soul
I
lift
up.
86:5 For
Thou,
Lord,
[art]
good
and
forgiving.
And
abundant
in
kindness
to
all
calling
Thee.
86:6 Hear,
O
Jehovah,
my
prayer,
And
attend
to
the
voice
of
my
supplications.
86:7 In
a
day
of
my
distress
I
call
Thee,
For
Thou
dost
answer
me.
86:8 There
is
none
like
Thee
among
the
gods,
O
Lord,
And
like
Thy
works
there
are
none.
86:9 All
nations
that
Thou
hast
made
Come
and
bow
themselves
before
Thee,
O
Lord,
And
give
honour
to
Thy
name.
86:10 For
great
[art]
Thou,
and
doing
wonders,
Thou
[art]
God
Thyself
alone.
86:11 Show
me,
O
Jehovah,
Thy
way,
I
walk
in
Thy
truth,
My
heart
doth
rejoice
to
fear
Thy
name.
86:12 I
confess
Thee,
O
Lord
my
God,
with
all
my
heart,
And
I
honour
Thy
name
to
the
age.
86:13 For
Thy
kindness
[is]
great
toward
me,
And
Thou
hast
delivered
my
soul
from
the
lowest
Sheol.
86:14 O
God,
the
proud
have
risen
up
against
me,
And
a
company
of
the
terrible
sought
my
soul,
And
have
not
placed
Thee
before
them,
86:15 And
Thou,
O
Lord,
[art]
God,
merciful
and
gracious,
Slow
to
anger,
and
abundant
in
kindness
and
truth.
86:16 Look
unto
me,
and
favour
me,
Give
Thy
strength
to
Thy
servant,
And
give
salvation
to
a
son
of
Thine
handmaid.
86:17 Do
with
me
a
sign
for
good,
And
those
hating
me
see
and
are
ashamed,
For
Thou,
O
Jehovah,
hast
helped
me,
Yea,
Thou
hast
comforted
me!
