Psalms 86:3

Prayer for Mercy, with Meditation on the Excellencies of the Lord

A Prayer of David.

1 Bow down Your ear, O Lord, hear me;
For I am poor and needy.

2 Preserve my¹ life, for I am holy;
You are my God;
Save Your servant who trusts in You!

3 Be merciful to me, O Lord,
For I cry to You all day long.

4 ¹Rejoice the soul of Your servant,
^aFor to You, O Lord, I lift up my soul.

5 For ^aYou, Lord, are good, and ready to forgive,
And abundant in mercy to all those who call upon You.
