Psalm 86
Authorized (King James) Version
Psalm 86
A Prayer of David.
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 made shall 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,
longsuffering, 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 Shew me a token for good;
that they which hate me may see it, and be ashamed:
because thou, Lord, hast holpen me, and comforted me.
Psalm 86
Amplified Bible
A Psalm of Supplication and Trust.
A Prayer of David.
86 Incline Your ear, O Lord, and answer me,
For I am distressed and needy [I long for Your help].
2
Protect my life (soul), for I am godly and faithful;
O You my God, save Your servant, who trusts in You [believing in You and relying on You, confidently committing everything to You].
3
Be gracious and merciful to me, O Lord,
For to You I cry out all the day long.
4
Make Your servant rejoice,
For to You, O Lord, I lift up my soul [all that I am—in prayer].
5
For You, O Lord, are good, and ready to forgive [our sins, sending them away, completely letting them go forever and ever];
And abundant in lovingkindness and overflowing in mercy to all those who call upon You.
6
Hear, O Lord, my prayer;
And listen attentively to the voice of my supplications (specific requests)!
7
In the day of my trouble I will call upon You,
For You will answer me.
8
There is no one like You among the gods, O Lord,
Nor are there any works [of wonder and majesty] like Yours.
9
All nations whom You have made shall come and kneel down in worship before You, O Lord,
And they shall glorify Your name.
10
For You are great and do wondrous works!
You alone are God.
11
Teach me Your way, O Lord,
I will walk and live in Your truth;
Direct my heart to fear Your name [with awe-inspired reverence and submissive wonder].(A)
12
I will give thanks and praise You, O Lord my God, with all my heart;
And will glorify Your name forevermore.
13
For great is Your lovingkindness and graciousness toward me;
And You have rescued my life from the depths of Sheol [from death].
14
O God, arrogant and insolent men have risen up against me;
A band of violent men have sought my life,
And they have not set You before them.
15
But You, O Lord, are a God [who protects and is] merciful and gracious,
Slow to anger and abounding in lovingkindness and truth.
16
Turn to me, and be gracious to me;
Grant Your strength [Your might and the power to resist temptation] to Your servant,
And save the son of Your handmaid.
17
Show me a sign of [Your] goodwill,
That those who hate me may see it and be ashamed,
Because You, O Lord, helped and comforted me.

86 Inclina, oh Señor, Tu oído(A) y respóndeme,
Porque estoy afligido y necesitado(B).
2 Guarda mi alma(C), pues soy piadoso(D);
Tú eres mi Dios; salva a Tu siervo que en Ti confía(E).
3 Ten piedad de mí(F), oh Señor,
Porque a Ti clamo todo el día(G).
4 Alegra el alma de Tu siervo,
Porque a Ti, oh Señor, elevo mi alma(H).

Abundante en misericordia para con todos los que te invocan(K).
6 Escucha(L), oh Señor, mi oración,
Y atiende a la voz de mis súplicas.
7 En el día de la angustia(M) te invocaré,
Porque Tú me responderás(N).
8 No hay nadie como Tú entre los dioses(O), oh Señor,
Ni hay obras como las Tuyas(P).
9 Todas las naciones que Tú has hecho vendrán y adorarán delante de Ti, Señor,
Y glorificarán Tu nombre(Q).

Y has librado mi alma de las profundidades del Seol(X).
14 Oh Dios, los arrogantes se han levantado contra mí(Y),
Y una banda de violentos ha buscado mi vida,
Y no te han tenido en cuenta.
15 Pero Tú, Señor, eres un Dios compasivo y lleno de piedad(Z),
Lento para la ira y abundante en misericordia y fidelidad[a].
16 Vuélvete hacia mí, y tenme piedad(AA);
Da Tu poder a Tu siervo(AB),
Y salva al hijo de Tu sierva(AC).
17 Muéstrame una señal de bondad(AD),
Para que la vean(AE) los que me aborrecen y se avergüencen,
Porque Tú, oh Señor, me has ayudado y consolado(AF).
