Psalms 86
Open Word Bible
A prayer of David. LORD, turn your ear toward me and answer, because I am afflicted and in need. Protect my life, for I am loyal to you. You are my God; rescue me, your servant, for I trust in you. Lord, show me your favor; I keep calling to you the whole day through. Make your servant glad, for my heart reaches out to you, Lord. For you, Lord, are good and quick to forgive, rich in loyal love to everyone who calls to you. LORD, turn your ear to my prayer; pay attention to my voice as I plead for mercy. On my day of trouble I cry out to you, sure that you will answer. Lord, no god is like you, and no one has done works like yours. Every nation you formed will come and bow low before you, Lord, and give glory to your name. For you are great, a worker of wonders; only you are God. LORD, teach me your way, and I will live by your truth; give me a heart set on one thing, to revere your name. Lord my God, I will thank you with my whole heart and honor your name for all time. For your loyal love for me is great; you have pulled me out of deepest Sheol. God, the proud have come at me, and a pack of brutal people is hunting for my life; they do not keep you in view. But you, Lord, are a God full of compassion and grace, slow to grow angry, overflowing with loyal love and faithfulness. Turn to me and show me your favor; lend your servant your strength, and rescue the son of your servant woman. Give me a sign that you mean me good, so that those who hate me see it and are left ashamed, because you, LORD, have come to my aid and brought me comfort.
