Psalm 86:1-Psalm 87:1 - Lament And Petition
1 A Davidic prayer.
for I am poor and needy.
You are my God; save Your servant who trusts in You.
for I call to You all day long.
because I turn to You, Lord.
5
rich in faithful love to all who call on You.
listen to my plea for mercy.
for You will answer me.
8
and there are no works like Yours.
will come and bow down before You, Lord,
and will honor Your name.
You alone are God.
11
and I will live by Your truth.
Give me an undivided mind to fear Your name.
and will honor Your name forever.
and You deliver my life from the depths of Sheol.
14
a gang of ruthless men seeks my life.
They have no regard for You.
slow to anger and rich in faithful love and truth.
Give Your strength to Your servant;
save the son of Your female servant.
my enemies will see and be put to shame
because You, Lord, have helped and comforted me.
1 A psalm of the sons of Korah. A song.
