Psa 86:1
A Prayer of David.
Incline H5186 Your ear H241, O Yahweh H3068, and answer H6030 me;
For I am afflicted H6041 and needy H34.
Psa 86:2
Keep H8104 my [fn]soul H5315, for I am a holy H2623 one H2623;
O You my God H430, save H3467 Your slave H5650 who trusts H982 in You.
Psa 86:3
Be H2603 gracious H2603 to me, O Lord H136,
For to You I call H7121 all H3605 day H3117 long.
Psa 86:4
Make H8055 glad H8055 the soul H5315 of Your slave H5650,
For to You, O Lord H136, I lift H5375 up H5375 my soul H5315.
Psa 86:5
For You, Lord H136, are good H2896, and by H5546 nature H5546 forgiving H5546,
And abundant H7227 in lovingkindness H2617 to all H3605 who call H7121 upon You.
Psa 86:6
Give H238 ear H238, O Yahweh H3068, to my prayer H8605;
And give H7181 heed H7181 to the voice H6963 of my supplications H8469!
Psa 86:7
In the day H3117 of my distress H6869 I shall call H7121 upon You,
For You will answer H6030 me.
Psa 86:8
There H369 is H369 no H369 one H369 like H3644 You among the gods H430, O Lord H136,
Nor H369 are H369 there H369 any works H4639 like Yours.
Psa 86:9
All H3605 nations H1471 whom H834 You have made H6213 shall come H935 and worship H2331 before H6440 You, O Lord H136,
And they shall glorify H3513 Your name H8034.
Psa 86:10
For You are great H1419 and do H6213 [fn]wondrous H6381 deeds H6381;
You alone H905 are God H430.
Psa 86:11
Teach H3384 me Your way H1870, O Yahweh H3068;
I will walk H1980 in Your truth H571;
Unite H3161 my heart H3824 to fear H3372 Your name H8034.
Psa 86:12
I will give H3034 thanks H3034 to You, O Lord H136 my God H430, with all H3605 my heart H3824,
And will glorify H3513 Your name H8034 forever H5769.
Psa 86:13
For Your lovingkindness H2617 toward H5921 me is great H1419,
And You have delivered H5337 my soul H5315 from Sheol H7585 below H8482.
Psa 86:14
O God H430, arrogant H2086 men H2086 have risen H6965 up H6965 against H5921 me,
And [fn]a band H5712 of ruthless H6184 men H6184 have sought H1245 my [fn]life H5315,
And they have not set H7760 You before H5048 them.
Psa 86:15
But You, O Lord H136, are a God H410 compassionate H7349 and gracious H2587,
Slow H750 to anger H639 and abundant H7227 in lovingkindness H2617 and [fn]truth H571.
Psa 86:16
Turn H6437 to me, and be H2603 gracious H2603 to me;
Oh grant H5414 Your strength H5797 to Your slave H5650,
And save H3467 the son H1121 of Your maidservant H519.
Psa 86:17
[fn]Show H6213 me a sign H226 for good H2896,
That those who hate H8130 me may see H7200 it and be H954 ashamed H954,
Because H3588 You, O Yahweh H3068, have helped H5826 me and comforted H5162 me.
