A Psalm of Supplication and Trust.A Prayer of David. 1 Bow down thine ear, O Jehovah, and answer me;For I am poor and needy. 2 Preserve my soul; for I am godly:O thou my God, save thy servant that trusteth in thee. 3 Be merciful unto me, O Jehovah;For unto thee do I cry all the day long. 4 Rejoice the soul of thy servant;For unto thee, O Jehovah, do I lift up my soul. 5 For thou, Jehovah, art good, and ready to forgive,And abundant in lovingkindness unto all them that call upon thee. 6 Give ear, O Jehovah, unto my prayer;And hearken unto the voice of my supplications. 7 In the day of my trouble I will call upon thee;For thou wilt answer me. 8 There is none like unto thee among the gods, O Jehovah;Neither are there any works like unto thy works. 9 All nations whom thou hast made shall come and worship before thee, O Jehovah;And they shall glorify thy name. 10 For thou art great, and doest wondrous things:Thou art God alone. 11 Teach me thy way, O Jehovah; I will walk in thy truth:Unite my heart to fear thy name. 12 I will praise thee, O Jehovah my God, with my whole heart;And I will glorify thy name for evermore. 13 For great is thy lovingkindness toward me;And thou hast delivered my soul from the lowest Sheol. 14 O God, the proud are risen up against me,And a company of violent men have sought after my soul,And have not set thee before them. 15 But thou, O Jehovah, art a God merciful and gracious,Slow to anger, and abundant in lovingkindness and truth. 16 Oh turn unto me, and have mercy upon me;Give thy strength unto thy servant,And save the son of thy handmaid. 17 Show me a token for good,That they who hate me may see it, and be put to shame,Because thou, Jehovah, hast helped me, and comforted me.
