A prayer of David.

Tried but Trusting

¹A Prayer of David. Incline, O Jehovah, Thine ear, Answer me, for I am poor and needy.+ ²Keep my soul, for I am pious, Save Thy servant--who is trusting to Thee, O Thou, my God.+ ³Favour me, O Lord, for to Thee I call all the day.+ ⁴Rejoice the soul of Thy servant, For unto Thee, O Lord, my soul I lift up.+ ⁵For Thou, Lord, art good and forgiving. And abundant in kindness to all calling Thee.+ ⁶Hear, O Jehovah, my prayer, And attend to the voice of my supplications.+ ⁷In a day of my distress I call Thee, For Thou dost answer me.+ ⁸There is none like Thee among the gods, O Lord, And like Thy works there are none.+ ⁹All nations that Thou hast made Come and bow themselves before Thee, O Lord, And give honour to Thy name.+ ¹⁰For great art Thou, and doing wonders, Thou art God Thyself alone.+ ¹¹Show me, O Jehovah, Thy way, I walk in Thy truth, My heart doth rejoice to fear Thy name.+ ¹²I confess Thee, O Lord my God, with all my heart, And I honour Thy name to the age.+ ¹³For Thy kindness is great toward me, And Thou hast delivered my soul from the lowest Sheol.+ ¹⁴O God, the proud have risen up against me, And a company of the terrible sought my soul, And have not placed Thee before them,+ ¹⁵And Thou, O Lord, art God, merciful and gracious, Slow to anger, and abundant in kindness and truth.+ ¹⁶Look unto me, and favour me, Give Thy strength to Thy servant, And give salvation to a son of Thine handmaid.+ ¹⁷Do with me a sign for good, And those hating me see and are ashamed, For Thou, O Jehovah, hast helped me, Yea, Thou hast comforted me!+
