JPS Tanakh 1917 1A Prayer of David. Incline Thine ear, O LORD, and answer me; For I am poor and needy.
2Keep my soul, for I am godly; O Thou my God, save Thy servant that trusteth in Thee.
3Be gracious unto me, O Lord; For unto Thee do I cry all the day.
4Rejoice the soul of Thy servant; For unto Thee, O Lord, do I lift up my soul.
5For Thou, Lord, art good, and ready to pardon, And plenteous in mercy unto all them that call upon Thee.
6Give ear, O LORD, unto my prayer; And attend unto the voice of my supplications.
7In the day of my trouble I call upon Thee; For Thou wilt answer me.
8There is none like unto Thee among the gods, O Lord, And there are no works like Thine.
9All nations whom Thou hast made shall come and prostrate themselves before Thee, O Lord; And they shall glorify Thy name.
10For Thou art great, and doest wondrous things; Thou art God alone.
11Teach me, O LORD, Thy way, that I may walk in Thy truth; Make one my heart to fear Thy name.
12I will thank Thee, O Lord my God, with my whole heart; And I will glorify Thy name for evermore.
13For great is Thy mercy toward me; And Thou hast delivered my soul from the lowest nether-world.
14O God, the proud are risen up against me, And the company of violent men have sought after my soul, And have not set Thee before them.
15But Thou, O Lord, art a God full of compassion and gracious, Slow to anger, and plenteous in mercy and truth.
16O turn unto me, and be gracious unto me; Give Thy strength unto Thy servant, And save the son of Thy handmaid.
17Work in my behalf a sign for good; That they that hate me may see it, and be put to shame, Because Thou, LORD, hast helped me, and comforted me. JPS Tanakh 1917: THE HOLY SCRIPTURES ACCORDING TO THE MASORETIC TEXT. A NEW TRANSLATION. Jewish Publication Society. 1917. Bible Hub |
