Psalm 86
International Standard Version
A Davidic prayer
Help Us, God
86 Lord, listen and answer me,
for I am afflicted and needy.
2 Protect me, for I am faithful;[a]
My God, deliver your servant who trusts in you.
3 Have mercy on me Lord,
for I call on you all day long.
4 Your servant rejoices,
because, Lord, I set my hope on[b] you.
5 Indeed you, Lord, are kind and forgiving,
overflowing with gracious love to everyone who calls on you.
6 Hear my prayer, Lord;
attend to my prayer of supplication.
7 In my troubled times I will call on you,
for you will answer me.
8 No one can compare with you among the gods, Lord;
No one can accomplish[c] your work.
9 All the nations that you have established will come
and worship you, my Lord.
They will honor your name.
10 For you are great,
and you are doing awesome things;
you alone are God.
11 Teach me your ways, Lord,
that I may walk in your truth;
let me wholeheartedly[d] revere your name.
12 I will praise you, Lord my God, with my whole being;
and I will honor your name continuously.
13 For great is your gracious love to me;
you’ve delivered me from the depths of Sheol.[e]
14 God, arrogant men rise up against me,
while a company of ruthless individuals want to kill me.
They do not have regard for you.[f]
15 But you, Lord, are a compassionate God,
merciful and patient,[g]
with unending gracious love and faithfulness.
16 Return to me and have mercy on me;
clothe your servant with your strength
and deliver the son of your maid servant.
17 Show me a sign of your goodness,
so that those who hate me will see it and be ashamed.
For you, Lord, will help and comfort me.

86 Oración de David. INCLINA, oh Jehová, tu oído, y óyeme; Porque estoy afligido y menesteroso.
2 Guarda mi alma, porque soy pío: Salva tú, oh Dios mío, á tu siervo que en ti confía.
3 Ten misericordia de mí, oh Jehová: Porque á ti clamo todo el día.
4 Alegra el alma de tu siervo: Porque á ti, oh Señor, levanto mi alma.
5 Porque tú, Señor, eres bueno y perdonador, Y grande en misericordia para con todos los que te invocan.
6 Escucha, oh Jehová, mi oración, Y está atento á la voz de mis ruegos.
7 En el día de mi angustia te llamaré: Porque tú me respondes.
8 Oh Señor, ninguno hay como tú entre los dioses, Ni obras que igualen tus obras.
9 Todas las gentes que hiciste vendrán y se humillarán delante de ti, Señor; Y glorificarán tu nombre.
10 Porque tú eres grande, y hacedor de maravillas: Tú solo eres Dios.
11 Enséñame, oh Jehová, tu camino; caminaré yo en tu verdad: Consolida mi corazón para que tema tu nombre.
12 Te alabaré, oh Jehová Dios mío, con todo mi corazón; Y glorificaré tu nombre para siempre.
13 Porque tu misericordia es grande para conmigo; Y has librado mi alma del hoyo profundo.
14 Oh Dios, soberbios se levantaron contra mí, Y conspiración de fuertes ha buscado mi alma, Y no te pusieron delante de sí.
15 Mas tú, Señor, Dios misericordioso y clemente, Lento para la ira, y grande en misericordia y verdad;
16 Mírame, y ten misericordia de mí: Da tu fortaleza á tu siervo, Y guarda al hijo de tu sierva.
17 Haz conmigo señal para bien, Y veánla los que me aborrecen, y sean avergonzados; Porque tú, Jehová, me ayudaste, y me consolaste.
