Psalm 86:1-2
1599 Geneva Bible
86 1 David sore afflicted and forsaken of all, prayeth fervently for deliverance: sometimes rehearsing his miseries, 5 Sometimes the mercies received. 11 Desiring also to be instructed of the Lord, that he may fear him, and glorify his Name. 14 He complaineth also of his adversaries, and requireth to be delivered from them.
A prayer of David.
1 Incline [a]thine ear, O Lord, and hear me: for I am poor and needy.
2 Preserve thou my soul, for I am [b]merciful: my God, save thou thy servant, that trusteth in thee.
