1 {A Davidic Prayer{ Stretch out Your ear, O Yahweh; Answer me, for humbled and needy am I."
2 Do guard my soul, for I am a benign one; Save Your servant, You Who are my Elohim; Save him who is trusting in You."
3 Be gracious to me, O Yahweh, For I am calling on You the entire day."
4 Rejoice the soul of Your servant, For to You, O Yahweh, am I lifting up my soul."
5 For You, O Yahweh, are good and pardoning, And with much benignity to all calling on You."
6 Do give ear, O Yahweh, to my prayer, And do attend to the voice of my supplications."
7 In the day of my distress shall I call on You, For You shall answer me."
8 There are none like You among the elohim, O Yahweh, And there are no deeds like Yours."
9 All nations which You have made Shall come and worship before You, O Yahweh, And they shall glorify Your Name."
10 For You are great and are doing marvelous works; You are Elohim by Yourself alone.
11 Direct me, O Yahweh, in Your way; I shall walk in Your truth; Unite my heart to fear Your Name."
12 I shall acclaim You, O Yahweh my Elohim, with all my heart, And I will glorify Your Name for the eon."
13 For Your benignity over me is great, And You have rescued my soul from the unseen beneath."
14 O Elohim, the arrogant rise against me, And the gang of terrifiers seek my soul; They do not place You in front of them."
15 Yet You, O Yahweh, are an El compassionate and gracious, Slow to anger and with much benignity and faithfulness."
16 Turn toward me and be gracious to me; Do grant Your strength to Your servant, And do save the son of Your maidservant."
17 Make a sign of good to be with me, That those hating me may see and be ashamed, Because You, O Yahweh, have helped me and comforted me."
