Psalms 86

A psalm of supplication and trust.

Preserve my soul; for I am godly:

Be merciful unto me, O Lord;

Rejoice the soul of thy servant;

For thou, Lord, art good, and ready to forgive,

Give ear, O Jehovah, unto my prayer;

In the day of my trouble I will call upon thee;

There is none like unto thee among the gods, O Lord;

All nations whom thou hast made shall come and worship before thee, O Lord;

For thou art great, and doest wondrous things:

Teach me thy way, O Jehovah; I will walk in thy truth:

I will praise thee, O Lord my God, with my whole heart;

For great is thy lovingkindness toward me;

O God, the proud are risen up against me,

But thou, O Lord, art a God merciful and gracious,

Oh turn unto me, and have mercy upon me;

Show me a token for good,
