Psalms 86 Hear, LORD, and answer me, for I am poor and needy.

VIN⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Hear, LORD, and answer me, for I am poor and needy. 2 Guard my soul, for I am godly; O You my God, save Your servant who trusts in You. ³ Have mercy on me Lord, for I call on you all day long. ⁴ Bring joy to the soul of your servant, for to you, Lord, do I lift up my soul. ⁵ for you, O Adonay, are good and forgiving - abundant in mercy to all who call on you. ⁶ Hear my prayer, LORD; attend to my prayer of supplication. ⁷ In the day of my trouble I will call on you, for you will answer me. ⁸ Among the gods there is none like You, O Lord; none are like Your works. ⁹ All nations you have made will come and worship before you, Lord. They shall glorify your name. ¹⁰ For You are great, and do wondrous things, You alone are God. ¹¹ Teach me your way, LORD. I will walk in your truth. Make my heart undivided to fear your name. ¹² I will praise you, O Lord my God, with all my heart: and I will glorify your name forevermore. ¹³ For great is your mercy toward me: and you have delivered my soul from the depths of sheol. ¹⁴ O God, arrogant people attack me, and a mob of ruthless people seeks my life. They think nothing of you. ¹⁵ But you, O Lord, are a compassionate and gracious God, slow to anger and abundant in loyal love and faithfulness. ¹⁶ Turn to me, and have mercy on me! Give your strength to your servant. Save the son of your servant. ¹⁷ Show me a sign for good, that those who hate me may see it and be put to shame, because you, the LORD, have helped me and comforted me.
