Psalm 86:1-10

English Standard Version

Great Is Your Steadfast Love

^(A)A Prayer of David.

86 ^(B)Incline your ear, O Lord, and answer me,
    for I am ^(C)poor and needy.
²Preserve my life, for I am ^(D)godly;
    save your servant, who ^(E)trusts in you—you are my God.
³^(F)Be gracious to me, O Lord,
    for to you do I cry all the day.
⁴Gladden the soul of your servant,
    for ^(G)to you, O Lord, do I lift up my soul.
⁵For you, O Lord, are good and ^(H)forgiving,
    ^(I)abounding in steadfast love to all who call upon you.
⁶^(J)Give ear, O Lord, to my prayer;
    listen to my plea for grace.
⁷In ^(K)the day of my trouble I call upon you,
    ^(L)for you answer me.

⁸There is ^(M)none like you among the gods, O Lord,
    ^(N)nor are there any works like yours.
⁹^(O)All the nations you have made shall come
    and worship before you, O Lord,
    and shall glorify your name.
¹⁰For ^(P)you are great and ^(Q)do wondrous things;
    ^(R)you alone are God.
