תהילים פ״וPsalms 86

A prayer of David.
Incline Your ear, O ETERNAL One,
answer me,
for I am poor and needy.

Preserve my life, for I am steadfast;
O You, my God,
deliver Your servant who trusts in You.

Have mercy on me, O my Sovereign,
for I call to You all day long;

bring joy to Your servant’s life,
for on You, my Sovereign, I set my hope.

For You, my Sovereign, are good and forgiving,
abounding in steadfast love to all who call on You.

Give ear, O ETERNAL One, to my prayer;
heed my plea for mercy.

In my time of trouble I call You,
for You will answer me.

There is none like You among the gods, O my Sovereign,
and there are no deeds like Yours.

All the nations You have made
will come to bow down before You, O my Sovereign,
and they will pay honor to Your name.

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

Teach me Your way, O ETERNAL One;
I will walk in Your truth;
let my heart be undivided in reverence for Your name.

I will praise You, O my Sovereign, my God, with all my heart
and pay honor to Your name forever.

For Your steadfast love toward me is great;
You have saved me from the depths of Sheol.

O God, arrogant people have risen against me;
a ruthless band seeks my life;
they are not mindful of You.

But You, O my Sovereign, are a God
compassionate and merciful,
slow to anger, abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness.

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

Show me a sign of Your favor,
that my enemies may see and be frustrated
because You, O ETERNAL One, have given me aid and comfort.
