1 Bow down thine ear, O Lord,hear me: for I am poor and needy.
2 Preserve my soul; for I am holy:O thou my God, save thy servant that trusteth in thee.
3 Be merciful unto me, O Lord:for I cry unto thee daily.
4 Rejoice the soul of thy servant:for unto thee, O Lord, do I lift up my soul.
5 For thou, Lord, art good, and ready to forgive;and plenteous in mercy unto all them that call upon thee.
6 Give ear, O Lord, unto my prayer;and attend to the voice of my supplications.
7 In the day of my trouble I will call upon thee:for thou wilt answer me.
8 Among the gods there is none like unto thee, O Lord;neither are there any works like unto thy works.
9 All nations whom thou hast madeshall come and worship before thee, O Lord;and shall glorify thy name.
10 For thou art great, and doest wondrous things:thou art God alone.
11 Teach me thy way, O Lord;I will walk in thy truth:unite my heart to fear thy name.
12 I will praise thee, O Lord my God, with all my heart:and I will glorify thy name for evermore.
13 For great is thy mercy toward me:and thou hast delivered my soul from the lowest hell.
14 O God, the proud are risen against me,and the assemblies of violent men have sought after my soul;and have not set thee before them.
15 But thou, O Lord, art a God full of compassion, and gracious,long-suffering, and plenteous in mercy and truth.
16 O turn unto me, and have mercy upon me;give thy strength unto thy servant,and save the son of thine handmaid.
17 Show me a token for good;that they which hate me may see it, and be ashamed:because thou, Lord, hast helped me, and comforted me.
