1
A Prayer of David. Bow down Your ear, O Lord, hear me; For I am poor and needy.
2
Preserve my life, for I am holy; You are my God; Save Your servant who trusts in You!
3
Be merciful to me, O Lord, For I cry to You all day long.
4
Rejoice the soul of Your servant, For to You, O Lord, I lift up my soul.
5
For You, Lord, are good, and ready to forgive, And abundant in mercy to all those who call upon You.
6
Give ear, O Lord, to my prayer; And attend to the voice of my supplications.
7
In the day of my trouble I will call upon You, For You will answer me.
8
Among the gods there is none like You, O Lord; Nor are there any works like Your works.
9
All nations whom You have made Shall come and worship before You, O Lord, And shall glorify Your name.
10
For You are great, and do wondrous things; You alone are God.
11
Teach me Your way, O Lord; I will walk in Your truth; Unite my heart to fear Your name.
12
I will praise You, O Lord my God, with all my heart, And I will glorify Your name forevermore.
13
For great is Your mercy toward me, And You have delivered my soul from the depths of Sheol.
14
O God, the proud have risen against me, And a mob of violent men have sought my life, And have not set You before them.
