Psalms 85

Brenton's English Septuagint · Berean Standard Bible

A Prayer of David. O Lord, incline thine ear, and hearken to me; for I am poor and needy.
86:1 A prayer of David. Incline Your ear, O LORD, and answer me, for I am poor and needy.
Preserve my soul, for I am holy; save thy servant, O God, who hopes in thee.
86:2 Preserve my soul, for I am godly. You are my God; save Your servant who trusts in You.
Pity me, O Lord: for to thee will I cry all the day.
86:3 Be merciful to me, O Lord, for I call to You all day long.
Rejoice the soul of thy servant: for to thee, O Lord, have I lifted up my soul.
86:4 Bring joy to Your servant, for to You, O Lord, I lift up my soul.
For thou, O Lord, art kind, and gentle; and plenteous in mercy to all that call upon thee.
86:5 For You, O Lord, are kind and forgiving, rich in loving devotion to all who call on You.
Give ear to my prayer, O Lord; and attend to the voice of my supplication.
86:6 Hear my prayer, O LORD, and attend to my plea for mercy.
In the day of my trouble I cried to thee: for thou didst hear me.
86:7 In the day of my distress I call on You, because You answer me.
There is none like to thee, O Lord, among the gods; and there are no [works] like to thy works.
86:8 O Lord, there is none like You among the gods, nor any works like Yours.
All nations whom thou hast made shall come, and shall worship before thee, O Lord; and shall glorify thy name.
86:9 All the nations You have made will come and bow before You, O Lord, and they will glorify Your name.
For thou art great, and doest wonders: thou art the only [and] the great God.
86:10 For You are great and perform wonders; You alone are God.
Guide me, O Lord, in thy way, and I will walk in thy truth: let my heart rejoice, that I may fear thy name.
86:11 Teach me Your way, O LORD, that I may walk in Your truth. Give me an undivided heart, that I may fear Your name.
I will give thee thanks, O Lord my God, with all my heart; and I will glorify thy name for ever.
86:12 I will praise You, O Lord my God, with all my heart; I will glorify Your name forever.
For thy mercy is great toward me; and thou hast delivered my soul from the lowest hell.
86:13 For great is Your loving devotion to me; You have delivered me from the depths of Sheol.
O God, transgressors have risen up against me, and an assembly of violent [men] have sought my life; and have not set thee before them.
86:14 The arrogant rise against me, O God; a band of ruthless men seeks my life; they have no regard for You.
But thou, O Lord God, art compassionate and merciful, long-suffering, and abundant in mercy and true.
86:15 But You, O Lord, are a compassionate and gracious God, slow to anger, abounding in loving devotion and faithfulness.
Look thou upon me, and have mercy upon me: give thy strength to thy servant, and save the son of thine handmaid.
86:16 Turn to me and have mercy; grant Your strength to Your servant; save the son of Your maidservant.
Establish with me a token for good; and let them that hate me see [it] and be ashamed; because thou, O Lord, hast helped me, and comforted me.
86:17 Show me a sign of Your goodness, that my enemies may see and be ashamed; for You, O LORD, have helped me and comforted me.
