The King James Version Bible

Psalms 86:1-14

  1. Bow down thine ear, O LORD, hear me: for I am poor and needy.

  2. Preserve my soul; for I am holy: O thou my God, save thy servant that trusteth in thee.

  3. Be merciful unto me, O Lord: for I cry unto thee daily.

  4. Rejoice the soul of thy servant: for unto thee, O Lord, do I lift up my soul.

  5. For thou, Lord, art good, and ready to forgive; and plenteous in mercy unto all them that call upon thee.

  6. Give ear, O LORD, unto my prayer; and attend to the voice of my supplications.

  7. In the day of my trouble I will call upon thee: for thou wilt answer me.

  8. Among the gods there is none like unto thee, O Lord; neither are there any works like unto thy works.

  9. All nations whom thou hast made shall come and worship before thee, O Lord; and shall glorify thy name.

  10. For thou art great, and doest wondrous things: thou art God alone.

  11. Teach me thy way, O LORD; I will walk in thy truth: unite my heart to fear thy name.

  12. I will praise thee, O Lord my God, with all my heart: and I will glorify thy name for evermore.

  13. For great is thy mercy toward me: and thou hast delivered my soul from the lowest hell.

  14. O God, the proud are risen against me, and the assemblies of violent men have sought after my soul; and have not set thee before them.
