Psalms, chapter 85

1. A prayer for David himself. Incline Thy ear, O Lord, and hear me: for I am needy and poor.
2. Preserve my soul, for I am holy: save Thy servant, O my God, that trusteth in Thee.
3. Have mercy on me, O Lord, for I have cried to Thee all the day.
4. Give joy to the soul of Thy servant, for to Thee, O Lord, I have lifted up my soul.
5. For Thou, O Lord, art sweet and mild: and plenteous in mercy to all that call upon Thee.
6. Give ear, O Lord, to my prayer: and attend to the voice of my petition.
7. I have called upon Thee in the day of my trouble: because Thou hast heard me.
8. There is none among the gods like unto Thee, O Lord: and there is none according to Thy works.
9. All the nations Thou hast made shall come and adore before Thee, O Lord: and they shall glorify Thy name.
10. For Thou art great and dost wonderful things: Thou art God alone.
11. Conduct me, O Lord, in Thy way, and I will walk in thy truth: let my heart rejoice that it may fear Thy name.
12. I will praise Thee, O Lord my God: with my whole heart, and I will glorify thy name for ever:
13. For Thy mercy is great towards me: and Thou hast delivered my soul out of the lower hell.
14. O God, the wicked are risen up against me, and the assembly of the mighty have sought my soul: and they have not set Thee before their eyes.
