Psalms 86:1-7 ▼

1 A prayer of David. Listen, LORD, and answer me, for I am poor and needy.

2 Protect my life, for I am faithful. You are my God; save your servant who trusts in you.

3 Be gracious to me, Lord, for I call to you all day long.

4 Bring joy to your servant’s life, because I appeal to you, Lord.

5 For you, Lord, are kind and ready to forgive, abounding in faithful love to all who call on you.

6 LORD, hear my prayer; listen to my cries for mercy.

7 I call on you in the day of my distress, for you will answer me.
