Book - Psalms - Chapter = 86 --> NLT

1. Bend down, O LORD, and hear my prayer; answer me, for I need your help.
   
2. Protect me, for I am devoted to you. Save me, for I serve you and trust you. You are my God.
   
3. Be merciful, O Lord, for I am calling on you constantly.
   
4. Give me happiness, O Lord, for my life depends on you.
   
5. O Lord, you are so good, so ready to forgive, so full of unfailing love for all who ask your aid.
   
6. Listen closely to my prayer, O LORD; hear my urgent cry.
   
7. I will call to you whenever trouble strikes, and you will answer me.
   
8. Nowhere among the pagan gods is there a god like you, O Lord. There are no other miracles like yours.
   
9. All the nations--and you made each one--will come and bow before you, Lord; they will praise your great and holy name.
   
10. For you are great and perform great miracles. You alone are God.
    
11. Teach me your ways, O LORD, that I may live according to your truth! Grant me purity of heart, that I may honor you.
    
12. With all my heart I will praise you, O Lord my God. I will give glory to your name forever,
    
13. for your love for me is very great. You have rescued me from the depths of death!
    
14. O God, insolent people rise up against me; violent people are trying to kill me. And you mean nothing to them.
    
15. But you, O Lord, are a merciful and gracious God, slow to get angry, full of unfailing love and truth.
    
16. Look down and have mercy on me. Give strength to your servant; yes, save me, for I am your servant.
    
17. Send me a sign of your favor. Then those who hate me will be put to shame, for you, O LORD, help and comfort me.
