Psalm 86
The Scriptures (ISR 1998)

1Incline Your ear, O יהוה, Answer me, for I am poor and needy.

2Guard my being, for I am dedicated; You are my Elohim; Save Your servant who is trusting in You!

3Show favour to me, O יהוה, For I cry to You all day long.

4Bring joy to the being of Your servant, For to You, O יהוה, I lift up my being.

5For You, יהוה, are good, and ready to forgive, And great in kindness to all those who call upon You.

6Give ear, O יהוה, to my prayer; And listen to the voice of my pleadings.

7In the day of my distress I call upon You, For You answer me.

8There is none like You among the mighty ones, O יהוה; And like Your works there are none.

9Let all nations You have made Come and bow themselves before You, O יהוה, And give esteem to Your Name.

10For You are great, and are doing wonders; You are Elohim, You alone.

11Teach me Your way, O יהוה; Let me walk in Your truth; Unite my heart to fear Your Name.

12I praise You, O יהוה my Elohim, with all my heart, And I esteem Your Name forever.

13For Your kindness is great toward me, And You have delivered my being From the depths of the grave.

14O Elohim, the proud have risen against me, And a band of dreaded men have sought my life, And have not set You before them.

15But You, O יהוה, Are a compassionate Ěl and showing favour, Patient and great in kindness and truth.

16Turn to me, and show favour to me! Give Your strength to Your servant, And save the son of Your female servant.

17Show me a sign for good, And let those hating me see it and be ashamed, For You, יהוה, have helped me and comforted me.
