Psalm 86:1-9 Amplified Bible (AMP)

1. INCLINE YOUR ear, O Lord, and answer me, for I am poor and distressed, needy and desiring.

2. Preserve my life, for I am godly and dedicated; O my God, save Your servant, for I trust in You [leaning and believing on You, committing all and confidently looking to You, without fear or doubt].

3. Be merciful and gracious to me, O Lord, for to You do I cry all the day.

4. Make me, Your servant, to rejoice, O Lord, for to You do I lift myself up.

5. For You, O Lord, are good, and ready to forgive [our trespasses, sending them away, letting them go completely and forever]; and You are abundant in mercy and loving-kindness to all those who call upon You.

6. Give ear, O Lord, to my prayer; and listen to the cry of my supplications.

7. In the day of my trouble I will call on You, for You will answer me.

8. There is none like unto You among the gods, O Lord, neither are their works like unto Yours.

9. All nations whom You have made shall come and fall down before You, O Lord; and they shall glorify Your name.
