1HEAR me, O Lord, and answer me,
for I am poor and needy.
2 Protect my life, for I am devoted to You.
You are my God; save Your servant who trusts in You.
3 Be merciful to me, O Lord,
for I call on You all day long.
4 Bring joy to Your servant’s life,
for to You, O Lord, I lift up my soul.
5For You, O Lord, are good and ready to forgive,
abounding in faithful love to all who call upon You.
6 Hear my prayer, O Lord;
listen to my plea for mercy.
7 In the day of my trouble I will call to You,
for You will answer me.
8 There is none like You among the gods, O Lord;
and there are no works like Your works.
9 All the nations You have made
will come and bow down before You, O Lord,
and they will honour Your name.
10 For You are great and perform wonders;
You alone are God.
11 Teach me Your way, O Lord,
and I will walk in Your truth;
give me an undivided heart
that I may fear Your name.
12 I will praise You, O Lord my God, with all my heart;
I will glorify Your name forever.
13 For great is Your faithful love toward me,
and You have delivered my life from the depths of Sheol.
14 O God, the arrogant rise up against me;
a band of violent men seek my life,
and they have no regard for You.
15 But You, O Lord, are a God of compassion and grace,
slow to anger, and abounding in faithful love and truth.
16 Turn to me and have mercy on me;
grant Your strength to Your servant;
save the son of Your maidservant.
17 Show me a sign of Your favour,
that my enemies may see it and be put to shame,
for You, O Lord, have helped me and comforted me.
