1: Bow down thine ear, O LORD, hear me: for I am poor and
needy. |
|
2: Preserve my soul; for I am holy: O thou my God, save thy
servant that trusteth in thee. |
|
3:
Be merciful unto me, O Lord: for I cry unto thee daily.
|
|
4: Rejoice the soul of thy servant: for unto thee, O Lord, do I
lift up my soul. |
|
5: For thou, Lord, art good, and ready to forgive; and plenteous
in mercy unto all them that call upon thee. |
|
6: Give ear, O LORD, unto my prayer; and attend to the voice of
my supplications. |
|
7: In the day of my trouble I will call upon thee: for thou wilt
answer me. |
|
8: Among the gods there is none like unto thee, O Lord; neither
are there any works like unto thy works. |
|
9: All nations whom thou hast made shall come and worship before
thee, O Lord; and shall glorify thy name. |
|
10: For thou art great, and doest wondrous things: thou art God
alone. |
|
11: Teach me thy way, O LORD; I will walk in thy truth: unite my
heart to fear thy name. |
|
12: I will praise thee, O Lord my God, with all my heart: and I
will glorify thy name for evermore. |
|
13: For great is thy mercy toward me: and thou hast delivered my
soul from the lowest hell. |
|
14: 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. |
|
15: But thou, O Lord, art a God full of compassion, and gracious,
longsuffering, and plenteous in mercy and truth. |
|
16: O turn unto me, and have mercy upon me; give thy strength
unto thy servant, and save the son of thine handmaid. |
|
17: 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. |
