1Extend Your ear, O Jehovah, hear me; for I am lowly and needy. 2Preserve my soul, for I am holy; You my God, save Your servant who trusts in You! 3Be merciful unto me, O Lord, for I cry out to You daily. 4Make glad the soul of Your servant, for unto You, O Lord, I lift up my soul. 5For You, Lord, are good, and ready to forgive, and abounding in mercy unto all those who call upon You. 6Give ear, O Jehovah, unto my prayer; and give attention to the voice of my supplications. 7In the day of my distress I will call upon You, for You will answer me. 8Among the gods there is none like You, O Lord; nor any like Your works. 9All nations whom You have made shall come and bow down before You, O Lord, and shall glorify Your name; 10for You are great, and do wondrous things; You alone are God. 11Teach me Your way, O Jehovah; I will walk in Your truth; unite my heart to fear Your name. 12I will praise You, O Lord my God, with all my heart, and I will glorify Your name always. 13For great is Your mercy toward me, and You have delivered my soul from the depths of Sheol. 14O God, the proud have risen against me, and the company of violent men have sought after my soul, and have not set You before them. 15But You, O Lord, are a Mighty God full of compassion, and gracious, longsuffering and abundant in mercy and truth. 16O turn to me, and have mercy upon me! Give Your strength to Your servant, and deliver the son of Your handmaid. 17Show me a sign for good, that those who hate me may see it and be ashamed, because You, Jehovah, have helped me and comforted me.
