Psalm 86

Bow down thine ear, O Lord, and hear me  *

for I am poor, and in misery.

Preserve thou my soul, for I am holy *

my God, save thy servant that putteth his trust in thee.

Be merciful unto me, O Lord *

for I will call daily upon thee.

Comfort the soul of thy servant *

for unto thee, O Lord, do I lift up my soul.

For thou, Lord, art good and gracious *

and of great mercy unto all them that call upon thee.

Give ear, Lord, unto my prayer *

and ponder the voice of my humble desires.

In the time of my trouble I will call upon thee *

for thou hearest me.

Among the gods there is none like unto thee, O Lord *

there is not one that can do as thou doest.

All nations whom thou hadst made shall come and worship thee, O Lord *

and shall glorify thy Name.

For thou art great, and doest wondrous things *

thou art God alone.

O turn thee then unto me, and have mercy upon me *

give thy strength unto thy servant, and help the son of thine handmaid.

Shew some token upon me for good, that they who hate me may see it and be ashamed *

because thou, Lord, hast holpen me and comforted me.
