2 Preserve my soul, for I am godly.You, my God, save your servant who trusts in you.
3 Be merciful to me, Lord,for I call to you all day long.
4 Bring joy to the soul of your servant,for to you, Lord, do I lift up my soul.
5 For you, Lord, are good, and ready to forgive;abundant in loving kindness to all those who call on you.
6 Hear, Lord, my prayer.Listen to the voice of my petitions.
7 In the day of my trouble I will call on you,for you will answer me.
8 There is no one like you amongst the gods, Lord,nor any deeds like your deeds.
