Psalms 86 · BSB

1Incline Your ear, O LORD, and answer me, for I am poor and needy.

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

3Be merciful to me, O Lord, for I call to You all day long.

4Bring joy to Your servant, for to You, O Lord, I lift up my soul.

5For You, O Lord, are kind and forgiving, rich in loving devotion to all who call on You.

6Hear my prayer, O LORD, and attend to my plea for mercy.

7In the day of my distress I call on You, because You answer me.

8O Lord, there is none like You among the gods, nor any works like Yours.

9All the nations You have made will come and bow before You, O Lord, and they will glorify Your name.

10For You are great and perform wonders; You alone are God.

11Teach me Your way, O LORD, that I may walk in Your truth. Give me an undivided heart, that I may fear Your name.

12I will praise You, O Lord my God, with all my heart; I will glorify Your name forever.

13For great is Your loving devotion to me; You have delivered me from the depths of Sheol.

14The arrogant rise against me, O God; a band of ruthless men seeks my life; they have no regard for You.

15But You, O Lord, are a compassionate and gracious God, slow to anger, abounding in loving devotion and faithfulness.

16Turn to me and have mercy; grant Your strength to Your servant; save the son of Your maidservant.

17Show me a sign of Your goodness, that my enemies may see and be ashamed; for You, O LORD, have helped me and comforted me.

King James Version +

1Bow down thine ear, O LORD, hear me: for I am poor and needy.

2Preserve my soul; for I am holy: O thou my God, save thy servant that trusteth in thee.

3Be merciful unto me, O Lord: for I cry unto thee daily.

4Rejoice the soul of thy servant: for unto thee, O Lord, do I lift up my soul.

5For thou, Lord, art good, and ready to forgive; and plenteous in mercy unto all them that call upon thee.

6Give ear, O LORD, unto my prayer; and attend to the voice of my supplications.

7In the day of my trouble I will call upon thee: for thou wilt answer me.

8Among the gods there is none like unto thee, O Lord; neither are there any works like unto thy works.

9All nations whom thou hast made shall come and worship before thee, O Lord; and shall glorify thy name.

10For thou art great, and doest wondrous things: thou art God alone.

11Teach me thy way, O LORD; I will walk in thy truth: unite my heart to fear thy name.

12I will praise thee, O Lord my God, with all my heart: and I will glorify thy name for evermore.

13For great is thy mercy toward me: and thou hast delivered my soul from the lowest hell.

14O 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.

15But thou, O Lord, art a God full of compassion, and gracious, long suffering, and plenteous in mercy and truth.

16O turn unto me, and have mercy upon me; give thy strength unto thy servant, and save the son of thine handmaid.

17Shew 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.
