Psalm 86.

Inclina, Domine.

BOW down thine ear, O LORD, and hear me; for I am poor, and in misery. Preserve thou my soul, for I am holy: my God, save thy servant that putteth his trust in thee. Be merciful unto me, O Lord; for I will call daily upon thee. Comfort the soul of thy servant; for unto thee, O Lord, do I lift up my soul. For thou, Lord, art good and gracious, and of great mercy unto all them that call upon thee. Give ear, LORD, unto my prayer, and ponder the voice of my humble desires. In the time of my trouble I will call upon thee; for thou hearest me. Among the gods there is none like unto thee, O Lord; there is not one that can do as thou doest. All nations whom thou hast made shall come and worship thee, O Lord; and shall glorify thy Name. For thou art great, and doest wondrous things: thou art God alone. Teach me thy way, O LORD, and I will walk in thy truth: O knit my heart unto thee, that I may fear thy Name. I will thank thee, O Lord my God, with all my heart; and will praise thy Name for evermore. For great is thy mercy toward me; and thou hast delivered my soul from the nethermost hell. O God, the proud are risen against me; and the congregations of violent men have sought after my soul, and have not set thee before their eyes. But thou, O Lord God, art full of compassion and mercy, long-suffering, plenteous in goodness and truth. O turn thee then unto me, and have mercy upon me; give thy strength unto thy servant, and help the son of thine handmaid. Show some token upon me for good; that they who hate me may see it, and be ashamed, because thou, LORD, hast holpen me, and comforted me.

Psalm 86

Bow down thine ear, O LORD, hear me: for I am poor and needy.

Preserve my soul; for I am holy: O thou my God, save thy servant
that trusteth in thee.

Be merciful unto me, O Lord: for I cry unto thee daily.

Rejoice the soul of thy servant: for unto thee, O Lord, do I lift
up my soul.

For thou, Lord, art good, and ready to forgive; and plenteous in
mercy unto all them that call upon thee.

Give ear, O LORD, unto my prayer; and attend to the voice of my
supplications.

In the day of my trouble I will call upon thee: for thou wilt
answer me.

Among the gods there is none like unto thee, O Lord; neither are
there any works like unto thy works.

All nations whom thou hast made shall come and worship before
thee, O Lord; and shall glorify thy name.

For thou art great, and doest wondrous things: thou art God
alone.

Teach me thy way, O LORD; I will walk in thy truth: unite my
heart to fear thy name.

I will praise thee, O Lord my God, with all my heart: and I will
glorify thy name for evermore.

For great is thy mercy toward me: and thou hast delivered my
soul from the lowest hell.

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.

But thou, O Lord, art a God full of compassion, and gracious,
long suffering, and plenteous in mercy and truth.

O turn unto me, and have mercy upon me; give thy strength unto
thy servant, and save the son of thine handmaid.

Shew me a token for good; that they which hate me may see it,
and be ashamed: because thou, LORD, hast holpen me, and comforted me.
