PSALMS 诗篇086

PSALM¹ 86
1Hear, O Lord , and answer me, for I am poor and needy².
2Guard my life, for I am devoted³ to you. You are my God; save your servant who trusts in you.
3Have mercy on me, O Lord, for I call to you all day long.
4Bring joy to your servant, for to you, O Lord, I lift up my soul.
5You are forgiving and good, O Lord, abounding⁴ in love to all who call to you.
6Hear my prayer, O Lord ; listen to my cry for mercy.
7In the day of my trouble I will call to you, for you will answer me.
8Among the gods there is none like you, O Lord; no deeds can compare with yours.
9All the nations you have made will come and worship before you, O Lord; they will bring glory to your name.
10For you are great and do marvelous deeds; you alone are God.
11Teach me your way, O Lord , and I will walk in your truth; give me an undivided heart, that I may fear your name.
12I will praise you, O Lord my God, with all my heart; I will glorify⁵ your name forever.
13For great is your love toward me; you have delivered me from the depths of the grave.
14The arrogant⁶ are attacking me, O God; a band of ruthless men seeks my life- men without regard for you.
15But you, O Lord, are a compassionate⁷ and gracious God, slow to anger, abounding in love and faithfulness.
16Turn to me and have mercy on me; grant your strength to your servant and save the son of your maidservant.
17Give me a sign of your goodness, that my enemies may see it and be put to shame, for you, O Lord , have helped me and comforted me.
