New Living Translation

Psalms 86:7-17 New Living Translation (NLT)

7. I will call to you whenever I’m in trouble,and you will answer me.

8. No pagan god is like you, O Lord.None can do what you do!

9. All the nations you madewill come and bow before you, Lord;they will praise your holy name.

10. For you are great and perform wonderful deeds.You alone are God.

11. Teach me your ways, O  lord,that I may live according to your truth!Grant me purity of heart,so that I may honor you.

12. With all my heart I will praise you, O Lord my God.I will give glory to your name forever,

13. for your love for me is very great.You have rescued me from the depths of death.

14. O God, insolent people rise up against me;a violent gang is trying to kill me.You mean nothing to them.

15. But you, O Lord,are a God of compassion and mercy,slow to get angryand filled with unfailing love and faithfulness.

16. Look down and have mercy on me.Give your strength to your servant;save me, the son of your servant.

17. Send me a sign of your favor.Then those who hate me will be put to shame,for you, O  lord, help and comfort me.
