Psalm 86
Jubilee Bible 2000
A Prayer of David.
1 ¶ Bow down thine ear, O LORD, hear me, for I am poor and needy.
2 Preserve my soul; for I am merciful, O thou my God, save thy slave that trusts in thee.
3 Be merciful unto me, O Lord, for I cry unto thee daily.
4 Rejoice the soul of thy slave, for unto thee, O Lord, do I lift up my soul.
5 For thou, Lord, art good and ready to forgive and plenteous in mercy unto all those that call upon thee.
6 Give ear, O LORD, unto my prayer and attend to the voice of my supplications.
7 In the day of my trouble I will call upon thee, for thou wilt answer me.
8 ¶ Among the gods there is none like unto thee, O Lord, neither is there any other who does thy works.
9 All the Gentiles whom thou hast made shall come and humble themselves before thee, O Lord; and shall glorify thy name.
10 For thou art great and doest wondrous things; thou alone art God.
11 Teach me thy way, O LORD; I will walk in thy truth; firm up my heart that I might fear thy name.
12 I will praise thee, O Lord my God, with all my heart, and I will glorify thy name for evermore.
13 For great is thy mercy upon me, and thou hast delivered my soul from the lowest part of Sheol.
14 O 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.
15 But thou, O Lord, art a merciful and gracious God, longsuffering and plenteous in mercy and truth.
16 O look into me and have mercy upon me; give thy strength unto thy slave and keep the son of thine handmaid.
17 Show me a token for good that those who hate me may see it and be ashamed because thou, O LORD, hast helped me and comforted me.
Psalm 86
New International Version
Psalm 86
A prayer of David.
1 Hear me, Lord, and answer(A) me,
for I am poor and needy.
2 Guard my life, for I am faithful to you;
save your servant who trusts in you.(B)
You are my God; 3 have mercy(C) on me, Lord,
for I call(D) to you all day long.
4 Bring joy to your servant, Lord,
for I put my trust(E) in you.
5 You, Lord, are forgiving and good,
abounding in love(F) to all who call to you.
6 Hear my prayer, Lord;
listen to my cry(G) for mercy.
7 When I am in distress,(H) I call(I) to you,
because you answer(J) me.
8 Among the gods(K) there is none like you,(L) Lord;
no deeds can compare with yours.
9 All the nations you have made
will come(M) and worship(N) before you, Lord;
they will bring glory(O) to your name.
10 For you are great(P) and do marvelous deeds;(Q)
you alone(R) are God.
11 Teach me your way,(S) Lord,
that I may rely on your faithfulness;(T)
give me an undivided(U) heart,
that I may fear(V) your name.
12 I will praise you, Lord my God, with all my heart;(W)
I will glorify your name forever.
13 For great is your love toward me;
you have delivered me(X) from the depths,
from the realm of the dead.(Y)
14 Arrogant foes are attacking me, O God;
ruthless people are trying to kill me—
they have no regard for you.(Z)
15 But you, Lord, are a compassionate and gracious(AA) God,
slow to anger,(AB) abounding(AC) in love and faithfulness.(AD)
16 Turn to me(AE) and have mercy(AF) on me;
show your strength(AG) in behalf of your servant;
save me, because I serve you
just as my mother did.(AH)
17 Give me a sign(AI) of your goodness,
that my enemies may see it and be put to shame,
for you, Lord, have helped me and comforted me.
